“…Combined studies of morphometric and molecular data to answer phylogenetic hypothesis has been found to be highly consistent and in agreement (Caumul & Polly, 2005;Clouse et al, 2009;Giribet et al, 2012), indicating that the morphometric data contain significant phylogenetic information. Moreover, it has been found that phylogenetic analyses based solely on morphometric data can produce strong hypotheses (Guerrero et al, 2003;González-José et al, 2008;de Bivor et al, 2010;Soto-Vivas et al, 2011). The results show a strong agreement with previous molecular results.…”

“…Coordinates x and y were analyzed directly with new algorithms for landmark data developed by Catalano et al (2010). A combination of ratchet, sectorial search, tree drifting, and tree fusing search algorithms was used for the selection of optimal trees and for the estimation of Jackknife values as a measure of support (Farris et al, 1996;Aguilar-Medrano et al, 2011;Soto-Vivas et al, 2011). Finally, morphological variables {x, y coordinates) were optimized on to the phylogeny.…”

“…Recently, the use of morphometrics in systematic contexts has undergone a clear revival (Humphries, 2002) through the development of new methodologies that allow a more efficient and elegant use of shape information, such as the direct use of x, >; (and 3D) coordinates (Catalano et al, 2010). Phylogenetic analyses based on geometric morphometrics have shown that morphometric data contain considerable historic signals (Felsenstein, 1988(Felsenstein, , 2002Guerrero et al, 2003;Caumul & Polly, 2005;Goloboff et al, 2006;González-José et al, 2008;de Bivort et al, 2010;Soto-Vivas et al, 2011).…”

Body shape evolution of Chromis and Azurina species (Percifomes, Pomacentridae) of the eastern Pacific

Chromis is a circumglobal tropical and temperate genus with over 84 species of damselfishes. Studies based in osteological and molecular data have cited the relationship between Azurina and Chromis in the eastern Pacific. The main objectives of the study are: (1) to characterize size and shape in all Chromis and Azurina species of the eastern Pacific, (2) explore the phylogenetic signal of external morphology, and (3) present a hypothesis of the diversification process of this group. According to the results, there is no significant relationship between size and shape. The variation in body shape among all species is related to the height of the trunk, position of the snout and eye, and length of the caudal peduncle. The main morphologic variation between Azurina and Chromis is the degree of elongation of the body. Both Azurina species are closely related to C. punctipinnis and C. atrilobata. The morphological pattern of Azurina integrated it into Chromis. The phylogenetic pattern found by geometric morphometric analyses presented a high similarity with previous results based on molecular data. Phylogeny recovered two main clades, slender-bodied and deep-bodied species. This pattern of morphometric variation is closely related to exploitation of two different reef environments.

Geometric wing morphometrics for Chrysomya albiceps and C. megacephala identification (Diptera: Calliphoridae) from Venezuela. Calliphoridae is one of the families with the greatest number of species with forensic importance, which immature stages feed and develop on decaying material. in Venezuela, there are few studies on this taxon reporting the dominance of Chrysomya over other carrion flies. The goal of this study was to analyze the variations on wing morphometrics, to support the identification of two forensic flies. For this we photographed a total of 168 wings from C. albiceps (n=111) and C. megacephala (n=57). Landmark coordinate (x, y) configurations were registered and aligned by Generalized Procrustes Analysis. Principal Component Analysis and shape significance test based on Procrustes distance were implemented. Statistical analysis of variance found significant differences in wing isometric size (Kruskal-Wallis). The PCA showed the separation between species, and shape test showed significant differences (F Goodall´s). The main differences between both species were localized on subcosta rupture, join of R 2+3 with wing border, join of dm-cu, and join of Cu with bm-cu, suggesting that wing morphometrics is a suitable tool in the discrimination of blowfly species.
