Figure 2. Above: Scatterplots of the first two principal components for Ichnotropis, based on the full Dataset 1 (A) and reduced Dataset 2 (B). Arrows indicate the loadings of morphological variables (see Materials and Methods for abbreviations). The green star marks the holotype of Ichnotropis capensis nigrescens (BE_RMCA_Vert.R.14641), and the brown star marks the holotype of Ichnotropis overlaeti (BE_RMCA_Vert.R.9691). Below: Box plots showing C snout–vent length (SVL), D head width (HW), and E head height (HH). Species are represented by different colours, and species groups are enclosed by polygons, as indicated in the legend. |
