FIGURE 4. a–j in Lost and Found: Taxonomic revision of the speckled skink (Oligosoma infrapunctatum; Reptilia; Scincidae) species complex from New Zealand reveals a potential cryptic extinction, resurrection of two species, and description of three new species

FIGURE 4. a–j. Notched boxplots comparing the morphological characteristics of the species in the Oligosoma infrapunctatum species group (O. albornense, n=4; O. auroraensis, n=6; O. newmani, n=50; O. robinsoni, n=14; O. salmo, n=5). a) snout-ear (SE)/ear-axilla (EF), b) midbody scales, c) ventral scales, d) upper ciliaries, e) supraciliaries, f) supralabials, g) snout-vent length (SVL)/ hindlimb length (HLL), h) subdigital lamellae, i) axilla-groin (AG)/snout-forelimb (SF), j) head-length (HL)/ head-width (HW). If there is no overlap between two medians, then the medians are significantly different at a 95% confidence interval.Published as part of Melzer, Sabine, Hitchmough, Rod A., Bell, Trent, Chapple, David G. & Patterson, Geoff B., 2019, Lost and Found: Taxonomic revision of the speckled skink (Oligosoma infrapunctatum; Reptilia; Scincidae) species complex from New Zealand reveals a potential cryptic extinction, resurrection of two species, and description of three new species, pp. 441-484 in Zootaxa 4623 (3) on page 455, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4623.3.2, http://zenodo.org/record/325858
