Table 2. Statistical results for two-way ANOVA assessing the influence of species and group (males and females) on the ratios of shell height (SH), shell width (SW) and plastron length (PL) on straight carapace length (SCL), and nuchal length (NL) on nuchal width (NW).| Parameter | Species | Group | Interaction |
|---|
| SH/SCL | F 4,339 = 58, P <0.001 | F 1,339 = 104, P <0.001 | F 4,339 = 3.1, P = 0.016 |

| SW/SCL | F 4,345 = 1.9, P = 0.108 | F 1,345 = 65, P <0.001 | F 4,345 = 2.3, P = 0.064 |
|---|
| PL/SCL | F 4,326 = 11, P <0.001 | F 1,326 = 202, P <0.001 | F 4,326 = 5.7, P <0.001 |

| NL/NW | F 4,334 = 52, P <0.001 | F 1,334 = 2.8, P = 0.093 | F 4,334 = 0.8, P = 0.053 |
