Clusters 4 (BWID, BDEP) and 7 (BLEN) showed no evident pattern of variation throughout the species' geographic range (Fig. 5). To summarize similarities and differences among the 9 sample areas, I per- formed 2 UPGMA (unweighted pair-group method using arithmetic averages) cluster analyses using (1) 9 variables that were selected using stepwise discriminant function analysis (P = ) as being those characters most effective in separating the 9 sample areas, and (2) 22 variables that had been used in a similar, multi- species analysis presented in Atwood (1988). Each of the resulting phenograms (Fig. 6) was structurally identical, with the principal dichotomy occurring between sample areas located north and south of 30°N latitude; a second major dichotomy also occurred between area LP31, located south of 25°N latitude, and other sample areas located south of 30°N latitude (MA30, SI29, PP28, BG27). Both phenograms.
