Fig. 2: Dimensions of carapace and number of scutes against carapace surface area in Ostracioidea.

Fig. 2

a Carapace length. b Carapace height. c Carapace width. d Number of scutes. Log-log-scales were used for (ac). The shaded area represents the 95% confidence interval of the model parameters from a linear regression model (ac) or a Poisson regression model with a log-link function (d). The grey line represents isometric scaling in (ac). The small plots in the right corner of each panel represent the residuals separated along the x-axis by simplified carapace geometry for easier comparison.
