Description

Fig. 16. Ordination analyses of 94 specimens of six clevelandellid morphospecies based on morphometric data (A) and cell shape information (B). A. Multidimensional scaling of the Gower's similarity matrix. B. Principal component analysis of the Fourier coefficients. Eigenvalues of the first two ordination axes are λ1= 0.723 and λ2= 0.135, explaining 85.8% of the total variation. The morphometric and geometrical data delimit the clevelandellid morphospecies consistently and unambiguously, i.e., each clevelandellid morphospecies forms a homogeneous cluster that is well isolated from all other morphospecies analyzed. Members of each morphospecies are highlighted by the same color as in Fig. 15.
