New Insights into Geometric Morphometry Applied to Fish Scales for Species Identification [PDF]
AnimalsThe possibility of quick and cheap recognition of a fish species from a single dermal scale would be interesting in a wide range of contexts. The methods of geometric morphometry appear to be quite promising, although wide studies comparing different ...

A Different Perspective on Sex Dimorphism in the Adult Hermann's Tortoise: Geometric Morphometry. [PDF]
Zool Stud, 2021 Eastern Hermann's tortoise (Testudo hermanni boettgeri) is a subspecies of Hermann's tortoise (Testudo hermanni) found in Albania. Gender determination is one of the crucial elements in determining the population dynamics in all species. Female and male adult tortoises look different, but these differences can be difficult to distinguish in captivity ...

Acta Tropica, 2022 The study of geometric morphometry has an impact on Triatominae studies. Currently, several taxonomic and systematic studies use this approach. The Triatominae subfamily comprises three fossil species and 154 extant species potentially capable of transmitting Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease.

Assessment of Formalin-Fixed Bovine Larynx Asymmetry Using Geometric Morphometry [PDF]
The Scientific World JournalThe vibrations of the larynx produce the voice. Little is known about morphology and the size of cattle larynx. The aim of the study was to quantify the shape asymmetry of the larynx in calves obtained postmortem using a geometric morphometric approach ...

Using geometric morphometrics and standard morphometry to discriminate three honeybee subspecies [PDF]
Apidologie, 2008 Honeybee (Apis mellifera) subspecies usually are distinguished by standard morphometry methods, based mainly on multivariate analysis of distances and angles. Recently another method of statistical analysis of shape, geometric morphometrics, has been developed. The new method is based on characteristic points described by Cartesian coordinates. The two
