FIG. 3 in Morphological Change during Rapid Population Expansion Confounds Leopard Frog Identifications in the Southwestern United States

FIG. 3. Distribution of morphometric characters for Rana berlandieri (Rb), uncertain individuals, and Rana yavapaiensis (Ry). Trait values are log transformed. Different letters indicate significant differences between groups based on Tukey multiple comparison tests (ANOVA, P, 0.05). Abbreviations as in Table 2.

FIG. 4. Character states for the left and right dorsolateral folds for R in Morphological Change during Rapid Population Expansion Confounds Leopard Frog Identifications in the Southwestern United States

FIG. 4. Character states for the left and right dorsolateral folds for R. berlandieri, uncertain individuals, and R. yavapaiensis. Points along the dark line indicate individuals with the same character state for the left and right dorsolateral folds. See text for description of character states. We have applied a small amount of random noise to the points to enhance visibility.

FIG. 2 in Morphological Change during Rapid Population Expansion Confounds Leopard Frog Identifications in the Southwestern United States

FIG. 2. Map of southeastern California, USA depicting historical localities of Rana yavapaiensis (black dots), contemporary localities of Rana berlandieri (white dots), and the uncertain specimens that we examine here (red dots).

FIG. 1 in Morphological Change during Rapid Population Expansion Confounds Leopard Frog Identifications in the Southwestern United States

FIG. 1. Types of dorsolateral folds observed in Rana berlandieri and Rana yavapaiensis. These representations depict the right dorsolateral folds. The color of the medially inset, posterior folds (states 1–6) indicate similarity of the tissue to the primary dorsolateral folds (see text for more information). Black depicts posterior folds that are similar in appearance to the primary fold, and lighter shades of gray indicate skin features that are less pronounced than the raised, glandular tissue of the primary folds. State 1 is typical of R. berlandieri across its native range, and state 5 is typical of R. yavapaiensis. Modeled after Pace (1974: fig. 23).

FIG. 5 in Morphological Change during Rapid Population Expansion Confounds Leopard Frog Identifications in the Southwestern United States

FIG. 5. Majority rule consensus tree of the posterior distribution of trees from the Bayesian analysis of the concatenated alignment (two mitochrondrial and four nuclear markers, with the model of evolution for each marker specified in Table 1). Individuals with uncertain species identification are shown in bold. Numbers below nodes are estimated posterior probabilities. See Data Accessibility for tree file.
