Fig. 6 in Cranial phenotypic variation in Meriones crassus and M. libycus (Rodentia, Gerbillinae), and a morphological divergence in M. crassus from the Iranian Plateau and Mesopotamia (Western Zagros Mountains)

Fig. 6. Scatter plot of PCA results on shape variables of the (A) ventral, (B) dorsal and (C) lateral sides of Meriones crassus Sundevall, 1842 specimens. Legends: ○ = Iranian Plateau, ● = Western Zagros, * = Kuwait, Δ = Arabian, ▲ = Jeddah, □ = Jordan/NW Arabia, ■ = African. Deformation grids (two times magnified) along the first principal components, representing shape differences between configurations corresponding to minimal and maximal scores, are shown to the right of each plot. For the numbering of landmarks, see Fig. 2.

Fig. 4 in Cranial phenotypic variation in Meriones crassus and M. libycus (Rodentia, Gerbillinae), and a morphological divergence in M. crassus from the Iranian Plateau and Mesopotamia (Western Zagros Mountains)

Fig. 4. Scatter plot of the CVA results of the (A) ventral and (B) dorsal shape data of Meriones crassus Sundevall, 1842 (two groups) and M. libycus Lichtenstein, 1823. Legends: ○ = M. crassus (other than Western Zagros), ● = M. crassus of Western Zagros, □ = M. libycus. The grids below show deformation along the arrows, when moving from the M. crassus group mean shape to the Western Zagros group mean shape (A1 and B1), and from the M. libycus mean shape to the mean shape of the Western Zagros (A2 and B2) (shape differences magnified three times for better visualization). For the numbering of landmarks, see Fig. 2.

Fig. 3. Scatter plot of RW1 versus RW2 of the (A) ventral and (B) dorsal cranium of Meriones crassus Sundevall, 1842 and M. libycus Lichtenstein, 1823. Legends: ○ = M. crassus (other than Western Zagros), ● = M. crassus of Western Zagros, □ = M. libycus. Below: thin-plate spline deformation grids visualize shape variation as expressed by the first two RWs axes (grids represent shape difference between configurations corresponding to lowest and highest RW-values). For the numbering of landmarks, see Fig. 2.

Fig. 7 in Cranial phenotypic variation in Meriones crassus and M. libycus (Rodentia, Gerbillinae), and a morphological divergence in M. crassus from the Iranian Plateau and Mesopotamia (Western Zagros Mountains)

Fig. 7. CVA scatter plot (axes 1 and 2) on shape variables of the (A) ventral, (B) dorsal and (C) lateral side of the Meriones crassus groups (Jeddah group not included). Legends: ○ = Iranian plateau, ● = Western Zagros, Δ = Arabian and ■ = African. Grids show deformation (3 x magnified) when following the trajectory within the morphospace along the arrows and between the groups' consensus (from African to Western Zagros – A1, B1 and C1; and from Iranian plateau to Western Zagros – A2, B2 and C2). For the numbering of landmarks, see Fig. 2.

Fig. 6 in Developing Best Practice In Micropalaeontology: Examples From The Mid-Cretaceous Of The Zagros Mountains

Fig. 6 Further examples of relatively recent Zagros mid-Cretaceous biozonation schemes that utilize larger benthic foraminifera. No numerical scaling of the geological timescale is implied. The age assignments and taxonomic nomenclature are often outdat- ed, and the uncertainty precludes precise calibration of stage boundaries and the precise relationship of one zonal scheme to another.

Fig. 1 in Developing Best Practice In Micropalaeontology: Examples From The Mid-Cretaceous Of The Zagros Mountains

Fig. 1 Optimal and sub-optimal workflows for the identification of larger benthic foraminifera. Following a review of identification, the identity of a specimen can be confirmed or downgraded to a non-specific identity. If the identification is confident based on morphological features, stratigraphic range extension is possible, but should be evaluated carefully if the vast majority of well-established records suggest a different age.

Fig. 3 in Developing Best Practice In Micropalaeontology: Examples From The Mid-Cretaceous Of The Zagros Mountains

Fig. 3 Early – mid-Cretaceous Zagros biozonations (mostly assemblage zones or biofacies) utilising larger benthic foraminifera. The Wynd (1965) zonation and Sissingh (1977) zonations are based on data presented in Motiei (1993). Sampò (1969) and Kalantari (1976) are published schemes, whilst that of Ammen & Gharib (2014) is a scheme using more modern taxonomic concepts. LAD = Last Appearance Datum. FAD = First Appearance Datum. s.l. = sensu lato. No numerical scaling of the geological timescale is implied. The age assignments and taxonomic nomenclature are often outdated, and the uncertainty precludes precise calibration of stage boundaries and the precise relationship of one zonal scheme to another.
