Urban Evolutionary Biology addresses the evolution of wild organisms in urban environments and provides new insights into this rapidly growing research field. With increasing urbanization and the maturation of urban study systems worldwide, interest is growing in urban environments as drivers of evolutionary changes.
This study is a response to the fact that the urban environment has so far been little studied within evolutionary biology, despite the clear differences with natural ecosystems. Cities offer unique opportunities to investigate rapid evolutionary processes, thanks to replicate contexts and measurable environmental factors as selection axes.
