Application of geometric morphometrics to analyse allometry in two species of the genus Myrmica (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)
Allometric changes in shape were analyzed in two species of the genus Myrmica using geometric morphometics. The pattern of allometry was visualized by thin plate splines (TPS) analysis. In 291 worker ants, 41 landmarks and 252 semilandmarks were fixed in images from four aspects: dorsal head, front...
