FIG. 3 in Body Color and Morphological Correlates of Fitness in Eastern Fence Lizards (Sceloporus undulatus): A Spectrophotometric Approach

FIG. 3.—Significant regressions of abdominal body color against morphometric traits for female Eastern Fence Lizards (Sceloporus undulatus) collected in 2013 from Dauset Trails Nature Center (Butts County, GA). (A) Ventral UV chroma X snout-vent length (SVL), (B) ventral UV chroma X body condition, (C) ventral blue chroma X body condition, (D) dorsal hue X SVL, (E) dorsal UV chroma X SVL. Female dorsal hue was not normally distributed and did not normalize following transformation. Data for dorsal UV chroma were normalized using reciprocal transformations (see Methods), but the untransformed data are presented here for simplicity.
