Ecogeographical and phylogenetic effects on craniofacial variation in macaques

ABSTRACT The widespread and complex ecogeographical diversity of macaques may have caused adaptive morphological convergence among four phylogenetic subgroups, making their phylogenetic relationships unclear. We used geometric morphometrics and multivariate analyses to test the null hypothesis that...
