Ecogeographic Patterns of Morphological Variation in Elepaios: Bergmann, Allen, and Gloger's Rules (OM73) Studies in Avian Biology NoEcogeographic Patterns of Morphological Variation in Elepaios (Chasiempis spp.): Bergmann's, Allen's, and Gloger's Rules in a Microcosm Ornithological Monographs Number 73. Abstract: Abstract Animals often exhibit predictable geographic variation in morphology, and such ecogeographic patterns reflect local adaptation to varying environmental conditions. The most common of these patterns are termed Bergmann's, Allen's, and Gloger's rules. I studied
