PCA – A Powerful Method for Analyze Ecological Niches (2012, background): “Claude et al. (2003) demonstrated, using the case of turtles, that geometric morphometry, evaluated with PCA, can help to analyze the evolution of convergence.”
Log-Shape Ratios, Procrustes Superimposition, Elliptic Fourier Analysis: Three Worked Examples in R (2013, methodology): “For Procrustes coordinates, I followed the Procrustes ANOVA approach described in Goodall (1991); Klingenberg and McIntyre (1998); Claude et al. (2003).”
A new cryptic species of pond turtle from southern Italy, the hottest spot in the range of the genus Emys (Reptilia, Testudines, Emydidae) (2005, background): “Moreover, turtles are generally known for their particularly homoplastic morphology (Feldman & Parham 2002; Claude et al. 2003).”
Combining Geometric Morphometrics and Finite Element Analysis with Evolutionary Modeling: Towards a Synthesis (2016, background): “…long been recognized that there is a general correspondence between habitat preference and shell shape in turtles (e.g., Romer, 1956; Zangerl, 1969; Claude et al., 2003; Renous et al., 2008), and our analysis raises the question of whether this consistency stems from intrinsic constraints…”
