Figure 46: Morphometric differentiation between female Leiurus arabicus sp. n. and L. haenggii sp. n. A. Scatter plot of the compound morphometric ratio (slenderness factor) Fs = a.b.c (where a = metasoma III L/W, b = pedipalp patella L/W, c = leg III patella L/D) vs. Carapace L (N = 30 L. arabicus, N = 43 L. haenggii). The distribution of ratios of the two species were overlapped for juveniles and young, and were increasingly separated in subadults and adults, as segments of L. arabicus become more slender by allometric growth. B, C, D. Log-log scatter plots of metasoma III L vs. W, pedipalp patella L vs. W, and leg III patella L vs. D, respectively. Linear regression was applied separately to data sets split into upper and lower size ranges for each species (red lines). Numbers show fitted slope ± standard deviation (SD), with SD ranges in brackets. Slopes were similar between L. arabicus and L. haenggii over the lower size range, and diverged over the upper size range. For all three segments, allometry was significantly diphasic in L. arabicus, and only weakly so, or monophasic, in L. haenggii.
