WardThe mean scores (+/− standard error) of fish from each of the six collection sites for the first morphological index, describing described 37.7% of the morphological variation in the sample. Morphological index 1 was primarily associated with variation in orbit diameter. Orbit diameter increased with decreasing morphological index score. The deformation plots on the right of the figure show the morphologies associated with the positive-most and negative-most scores. Tukey post-hoc analyses: * indicates P<0.05.
