Body shape variation in cichlid fishes of the Amphilophus citrinellus species complex. (2003, background): “Accordingly, morphometric studies can provide useful information on the evolution of fishes (Schluter, 1993; Klingenberg & Ekau, 1996; Walker, 1997; Caldecutt & Adams, 1998; Douglas et al ., 2001; Rüber & Adams, 2001; Hulsey & Wainwright, 2002).”
Geometric morphometrics as a tool for understanding Dactylorhiza (Orchidaceae) diversity in European Russia (2005, background): “Ray, 1992; Kores, Molvray & Darwin, 1993; Pavlinov, 2000; Rueber & Adams, 2001; Jensen et al. , 2002; Guill, Heins & Hood, 2003), but most of them have hitherto been performed on zoological and/or palaeontological objects 2 A.

Getting into Shape: An Empirical Comparison of Traditional Truss-Based Morphometric Methods with a Newer Geometric Method Applied to New World Cichlids (2003, methodology): “The most common approaches, referred to as ‘traditional’ morphometrics, are only a few decades old (Marcus 1990, Rohlf & Marcus 1993, Adams et al. 2003), and typically apply multivariate statistical methods (e.g., principal components analysis, canonical variate analysis, discriminant function ana”
