Using our recent research results in non-model species of mammals and reptiles, I will discuss the possibility that some specific aspects of skin morphology in vertebrates are emerging from geometric, reaction-diffusion (Turing), and mechanical instabilities. Most of the talk will focus on how skin thickness variation (generated by 3D morphogenesis) of skin scales in ocellated lizards causes the underlying reaction–diffusion dynamics to separate into microscopic and mesoscopic spatial scales, the latter generating a cellular automaton that computes a colour pattern.
