Closer examination of these populations will provide insights into the potential roles of common ancestry, convergent evolution, human-mediated gene flow, priority effects, and contingency in the evolutionary patterns of introduced species.
Robert Christgau was the self-proclaimed dean of the genre, professing a theory of pop grounded in contingency, and forever on the lookout for fun.
