A quantitative method for describing how heterochronic changes in ontogeny relate to phyletic trends is presented. This is a step towards creating a unified view of developmental biology and evolutionary ecology in the study of morphological evolution. Using this representation, a greatly simplified and logical scheme of classification is obtained. This scheme will be particularly useful in studying the data of paleontology and comparative morphology and in the analysis of processes leading to adaptive radiation.
