FIGURE 2 in Cryptic diversity within the narrowly endemic Lerista wilkinsi group of north Queensland—two new species (Reptilia: Scincidae)
FIGURE 2. Majority rule consensus tree of Queensland Lerista species and outgroup taxa based on four independent runs of the concatenated data set combining multiple loci (12S, 16S, ND4, flanking tRNAs and nuclear ATPs β). Branches with <60% support were collapsed and posterior probabilities are indicated above the branches. The letter codes falling below four of the branches (A, B, B1 and B2) are the clades referred to in the text. Scale bar represents 5% of uncorrected sequence divergence.

FIGURE 7 in Morphological and genetic data challenge species and subspecies in the Lerista microtis group (Squamata: Scincidae)
FIGURE 7. Longitudinal patterns of morphological variation in the L. microtis group. The x-axis represents a west–east geographical space across coastal southern Australia, and the y-axis describes important dimensions of morpho-spatial variation: (A) PC1 scores, derived from six mensural characters; (B) nMDS1 scores, and (C) nMDS2 scores, derived from five non-mensural characters. The line of best fit and 95% confidence interval are denoted by the black line and grey shaded zone, respectively. These graphs illustrate a mostly continuous and clinal structuring of phenotypic characters in the Lerista microtis group.
FIGURE 6 in Morphological and genetic data challenge species and subspecies in the Lerista microtis group (Squamata: Scincidae)
FIGURE 6. Biplot of non-metric multidimensional scaling (nMDS) performed on five qualitative characters (DP, ULSB, ULSW, MLSW, NSS) and one meristic (MSR; i.e., an integer count) character. These characters are among key traits Storr (1991a) used to diagnose these purported taxa. Specimens (coloured points) that are ordinated closer to one another are phenotypically more similar than those further apart. This graph lends support to the phenotypic distinctiveness of Lerista arenicola from L. microtis.
FIGURE 5 in Morphological and genetic data challenge species and subspecies in the Lerista microtis group (Squamata: Scincidae)
FIGURE 5. Biplot of the PCA performed on six mensural characters (SVL, HL, HW, AGD, Forelimb and Hindlimb). Axes show the first two principal components (i.e., PC1 and PC2) and their percentage of explained variation. Large, coloured ovals denote the 90% concentration ellipses for each taxonomic group proposed by Storr (1991a). Small points denote PC scores of individuals, whereas large points denote group centroids. Variables are denoted by arrows, the direction and length of which indicates their degree of contribution to each axis. Each variable is coloured according to its percentage contribution to its associated PC.
FIGURE 1 in Morphological and genetic data challenge species and subspecies in the Lerista microtis group (Squamata: Scincidae)
FIGURE 1. Distribution of currently recognized Lerista microtis subspecies and Lerista arenicola. Taxon assignment reflects that of the original museum records and the purported distribution as described in the literature (e.g., Storr 1991a; Wilson & Swan 2021). Note that all confirmed records of L. m. schwaneri are confined to islands near the SA mainland. Photographs of live specimens as follows: L. m. microtis (green)—Anders Zimny; L. m. intermedia (blue)—Jordan Vos; Lerista arenicola (red)— Brad Maryan; L. m. schwaneri (yellow)—Trevor Peters. Record colours are made slightly transparent to show overlapping records better, with more saturated colours indicating greater density of records.
FIGURE 3 in Morphological and genetic data challenge species and subspecies in the Lerista microtis group (Squamata: Scincidae)
FIGURE 3. Geographical distribution of the characters states proposed by Storr (1991a) to diagnose Lerista microtis subspecies and L. arenicola. There is geographic predictability for some phenotypes (e.g., width of mid-lateral and upper lateral stripe), but less so for others (e.g., dorsal patterning). Arrows denote specimens from inlands. White points in the SVL map are juvenile specimens, which were removed from morphological analyses.
