Figure 4

Phenotypic plasticity in larval morphological traits. First and second components of PCA analysis on morphometric measures of fourth instar larvae (a, b). Differences between sexes (red = female, blue = male) in constant temperature and salinity condition (CC), rising temperature condition (TC), and decreasing salinity condition (SC). Significance levels: *** = P < 0.001, ** = P < 0.01, * = P < 0.05, ns = P > 0.05. Boxplots show median values (middle line), interquartile range (box) and the range values including some outliers (dots which extend beyond the min and max of the boxplot).
