Cover image: Pictured are the suspension-feeding tadpoles of the African clawed frog species Xenopus laevis. Tadpoles of the Anuran family occupy a broad range of aquatic habitats worldwide and exhibit a morphological diversity that parallels adult frogs. Using a molecular phylogenetic framework, Kim Roelants et al. reconstruct how this larval diversity arose and show that tadpoles experienced a burst of morphological innovation during the early radiation of Anura in the Triassic. See the article by Roelants et al. on pages 8731–8736. Image courtesy of Alexander Haas.
