FIGURE 4 in Comparative morphology of the eggs from the eight species in the genus Agathemera Stål (Insecta: Phasmatodea), through phylogenetic comparative method approach
No full textFIGURE 4. Distribution of height/length ratio. the species are ordered following the phylogenetic relationships. Boxes represent the values between the 25 and 75 percentiles respectively, the horizontal line is the median and the point within each box is the mean and the whiskers indicate the sample range. Light grey boxplots correspond to species from clade 1 and dark grey boxplots correspond to species from clade 2. Different letters indicate significant differences (α = 0.05) in multiple comparisons. * indicates that differences are marginally significant (p = 0.043, see table 3), however the letters indicate no differences between those group, for simplicity in the coding.Published as part of Cubillos, Claudio & Vera, Alejandro, 2020, Comparative morphology of the eggs from the eight species in the genus Agathemera Stål (Insecta: Phasmatodea), through phylogenetic comparative method approach, pp. 523-543 in Zootaxa 4803 (3) on page 531, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4803.3.8, http://zenodo.org/record/399103
