morphometrics

Morphometrics - Measurements which characterise the form, shape and appearance of an animal or plant.

Difference in morphometrics, such as colouration, can be used to distinguish different stocks of the same species.

The three species also differ from their congeners by meristics and morphometrics.

Bates compared morphometrics between the cloaked artefact and the skimmers.

This is only one use of his application of "morphometrics," or the statistics of shape.

Morphometrics scrolled across my inlays: mass, diameter, mean density.

He uses innovative technologies such as 3D-scanning, morphometrics, 3D-printing and interactive 3D visualisation.

Surface morphometrics were absolutely uniform.

Preliminary analysis of braying calls and cluster analysis of morphometrics partially supported these results.

Otothyris species also differ in tooth counts, lateral line and abdominal plates, and morphometrics.

This classification was based on both morphometrics and a phylogenetic analysis using the Cytochrome b gene, and includes the following species:

They can best (reliably) be differentiated using morphometrics, which can also be used to identify morphologically distinct populations in both species.

Dynamic morphometrics and other imaging techniques have been used to observe both dendrite growth and synaptogenesis-two processes between which the relationship is not well understood.

Morphometrics of these skins, particularly the lengths of the tarsus, bill, tail and wing became important in the descriptions of bird species.

Specimens from southern India are however very similar in morphometrics to those from malayensis of Burma and the size variation may be clinal.

Morphometrics of Compact Bone: An Example from Sudanese Nubia.

Morphometrics and taxonomy of bats of the genus Pteronotus (subgenus Phyllodia) in Venezuela.

The data includes information such as identification keys, morphometrics, broodstock, spawning and nursery behaviour, prey and predators, and growth stages and rates.

Evolutionary patterns of morphometrics, allozymes, and mitochondrial DNA in thrashers (genus Toxostoma).

Geometric morphometrics (systems of coordinates superimposed over the measurements of the endocast) are often applied to allow comparison between specimens of varying size.

Preliminary data on genetics and morphometrics of Myotis alcathoe (Chiroptera, Vespertilionidae) in Croatia (subscription required).

The synonymy of Helicina goldfussi and Helicina rhodostoma inermis is confirmed by morphometrics and anatomical studies.

Morphometric software - Archive of many different types of software for use in morphometrics - especially geometric morphometrics.

Using a new and rigorous method for assessing structural complexity called geometric morphometrics, he then gauged the genital complexity of his various species at 19 different contrast points.

Morphometrics can be used to quantify a trait of evolutionary significance, and by detecting changes in the shape, deduce something of their ontogeny, function or evolutionary relationships.
