FIGURE 3. Meristic character variation between lineages based on n = 59 specimens. (A) Biplot of non-metric multidimensional scaling (nMDS) performed on meristic characters. Specimens (coloured points) that are ordinated closer to one another are phenotypically more similar than those further apart. Holotype specimens are denoted by 'H' above data points. (B) Comparative boxplots of meristic characters showing the mean (white dot), median (thick grey horizontal line) range, and inter-quartile range (coloured box). Asterisks denote characters bearing statistically significant (GLM) differences in expected counts.
