reversión/atavismo

A ver, cuando un rasgo evoluciona de A a B (por ejemplo, de oído reptiliano a oído mamiferiano, simplificando) y después evoluciona de nuevo de B a A, a eso se le llama técnicamente reversión. También se puede decir que ese rasgo concreto ha evolucionado "hacia atrás", pues ha pasado a un estadio más primitivo.

reverse mutation/atavism
