ligophorus_tpsdata: Raw landmark coordinate data for 13 Ligophorus species

Description

This data set contains raw landmark coordinate data for samples from 13 Ligophorus species obtained using the TPSDIG2 program (Rohlf, 2013).

Usage

data(ligophorus_tpsdata)

Format

a list of 13 objects; each object is a list containing objects that are matrices with 44 rows (landmarks 1 to 11 of ventral right,ventral left,dorsal right and dorsal left anchors) and 2 columns (xy-coordinates)

Details

Quality control via Qscore has not yet been applied to this data set (n=530), so examples of good and poor quality specimens can be inspected using polyVis.
