Comparative geometric morphometrics of male genitalia in Xiphocentron subgenera (Trichoptera: Xiphocentronidae): new species, revision and phylogenetic systematics of the subgenus Sphagocentron [PDF]
Arthropod Systematics & PhylogenyGeometric morphometric statistics have been employed to reduce the subjectivity of visual evaluations in taxonomy. Taxonomy in most insect groups relies strongly on male genitalia morphology which is often the structure with most data available, which is
