Description
Fig. 24. Comparison of the most discriminating variables and indices between the soldiers of the various valve patterns: bt = bilobatus, bd = bilobatodes, mu = muneris, fu = fungifaber, fi = finitimus, sa = sankurensis, oc = oculatus, ob = oblectatus and su = sulcifrons. All the individuals studied are plotted in these graphs. A. The soldiers head length distinguishes a group (four patterns) of larger species from a group (five patterns) of smaller species. B. The soldier's cephalic elongation index shows two patterns with elongated heads. C. The soldier's gnatho-cephalic index shows two patterns with relatively short mandibles and one with long mandibles (the outlier point in the muneris pattern is due to C. falcifer). D. The soldier's valve bilaterality index distinguishes the oculatus valve pattern from almost all the other patterns.
