FIGURE 5 in Comparative Meristic Variability in Whiptail Lizards (Teiidae, Aspidoscelis): Samples of Parthenogenetic A. tesselata Versus Samples of Sexually Reproducing A. sexlineata, A. marmorata, and A. gularis septemvittata

FIGURE 5. Pattern of meristic variation between parthenogenetic Aspidoscelis tesselata E (○) and gonochoristic A. marmorata (□) depicted by the projection of principal component scores on PC1 and PC2 axes: A. Arroyo del Macho, Chaves County, New Mexico (N = 38 and N = 29, respectively); B. vicinity of Engle, Sierra County, New Mexico (N = 30 and N = 33, respectively). Percentages represent the proportion of meristic variation summarized by each principal component, and ellipses define the 95% confidence limits for score distributions.
