Intrapopulational variation in head shape correlates with soil structure heterogeneity in a head‐first burrowing amphisbaenian, Trogonophis wiegmanni Morphological traits evolve to solve ecological requirements. Amphisbaenians are fossorial reptiles with different snout shapes for burrowing head-first underground, but how these head shapes have or...
