Description

Fig. 4. Posterior hook morphology of Raillietiella orientalis, collected from snakes in the Northern Territory of Australia. Barb length (AB) versus overall length (BC) of pentastomids measured from four snake species: Northern death adder (Acanthophis praelongus; black diamonds), lesser black whip snake (Demansia vestigiata; grey circles), keelback (Tropidonophis mairii; grey triangles), and water python (Liasis fuscus; dark grey squares). (a) Raw hook measurements uncorrected for pentastome body size, note potential species clusters; (b) Hook measurements corrected for pentastome body size (residual scores from a linear regression of hook measurements against pentastome body size), note that clusters now disappear.
