dc.description.abstractPrincipal components analysis of morphometric data from snail shells occupied by hermit crabs enables the important dimensions of the shell to be described and quantified. A high correlation of the first principal component with crab size shows this component to be a better estimator of overall shell size than any of the original morphometric variates. Principal component II separated the shells utilized by adjacent populations of Coenobita and Calcinus according to shape.en_US
