Análisis de características morfométricas en cangrejos (Crustacea: Decapoda: Pseudothelphusidae) usando métodos multivariados

By using statistical methods, a way was explored of identifying taxonomically freshwater crabs. The results of a morphometrical analysis carried out only using undamaged sexually mature specimens of Neostrengeria macropa, Neostrengeria guenteri and the subspecies Hypolobocera bouvieri bouvieri are presented. Using multivariate statistical methods, 12 variables are found with discriminant power between the three species. The statistical data obtained are also useful for the classification of additional specimens, independent of sex, coming from the same watershed and belonging to one of the three species included in the present study.
