1. Evolution of birds from feathered reptiles
   Birds, in the sense of flying descendants of feathered reptiles (a more expansive group than the "true" birds in today's skies), evolved several times from within the theropods.

2. Hummingbirds, sunbirds and honeyeaters
   One of the most well known examples of convergence among birds is between hummingbirds, sunbirds and honeyeaters, all of which are small, dominantly nectar-feeding birds.

3. Desert plants with succulent stems
   Fleshy, succulent stems have evolved in several distantly related desert plant families, including cacti, certain species of Euphorbia and two genera of the family Asclepiadaceae, Hoodia and Stapelia.

4. Succulent desert plants
   Classic examples of convergence in desert plants include the so-called 'stem succulent' cacti in the Americas and cactus-like Euphorbia species in Africa and South Asia, and also the striking similarity between 'leaf succulent' Agave and Yucca of the Americas and Aloe and its close relatives in Africa.

5. Enzymes: convergence on active sites and reaction types
   Enzymes make the world go round, each an evolutionary marvel - and convergent.

6. Carbonic anhydrase in vertebrates, plants, algae and bacteria
   Carbonic anhydrase is extremely convergent and may have evolved as many as six times. The most familiar variants are α, β and γ carbonic anhydrases.
