Very significant differences (P ). The Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) (Appendix III, Table 2), as in the male analysis, it shows that Guadarrama is the most different one, especially in DORS, VENT and CIRCA (the first two characters smaller, and the third one greater in the former population). Guadarrama also dif- fers from Gredos by its lower GUL, from Bejar by its greater FLL, HLL, a lower SVL; and from Sierras de Avi- la by its greater relative anal scale surface. Also, significant differences appear in SVL between Be- jar (clearly the great sized female population) and Gre- dos, and among this latter (with relative greater FLL and HLL) with Bejar and Villafranca. As in male analysis, there is no significant correlation among Mahalanobis' distances and the geographic and cli- matic parameters analyzed (all Mantel Tests P > ). DISCUSSION From the Discriminant and ANOVA analyses it appears that the only differentiated sample is Guadarrama. It ap- pears with very limited overlap with the other samples in the CDA graphs (Figs 2 A and B). Diagnostic characters for this population (nominate subspecies: /. c. cyreni) are the lower values of DORS (difference more marked in fe- males), lower values of VENT and greater CIRCA. More- over, ANOSIM analyses show that Guadarrama is the unique OTU that is significantly different from nearly all the other samples, except from the close population of Mi- jares (in both sexes) and Serrota + Paramera (but these ex- ceptions occur only in the males and probably due to their scarce sample size). Mijares sample (very small) seems in some aspects ap- pr
