Geometric morphometrics—a set of methods for the statistical analysis of shape once
saluted as a revolutionary advancement in the analysis of morphology—is now mature and …

Abstract The Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) species “complex” has fascinated biologists for
decades particularly with respect to how many species there are and their geographic …

The analysis of morphological diversity frequently relies on the use of multivariate methods
for characterizing biological shape. However, many of these methods are intolerant of …

Charrs, fishes of the genus Salvelinus (Salmonidae), comprise about 7–20+ species
important in the ecosystems and fisheries of Arctic and sub-Arctic waters. Charrs vary by life …

Morphological divergence was evident among three sympatric morphs of Arctic charr
(Salvelinus alpinus (L.)) that are ecologically diverged along the shallow‐, deep‐water …

The origin of species is a central topic in biology. Ecological speciation might be a driver in
adaptive radiation, providing a framework for understanding mechanisms, level, and rate of …

We undertook geometric morphometric analysis of wing venation to assess this character's
ability to distinguish Anopheles darlingi Root populations and to test the hypothesis that …

Geometric morphometrics is widely used to quantify morphological variation between
biological specimens, but the fundamental influence of operator bias on data reproducibility …

The diversity of phenotypically different and often reproductively isolated lacustrine forms of
charrs of the genus Salvelinus represents a substantial problem for taxonomists and …

Conceptual models of adaptive divergence and ecological speciation in sympatry predict
differential resource use, phenotype–environment correlations, and reduced gene flow …
