P = ) due to possible interactions between the other cranial variables (Willig et al. 1986, Willig & Owen 1987). Thus, the absence of perceptible sexual dimorphism within the species for the variables considered was accepted, sexes being grouped together for each population. In multivariate analysis, from each of the variables set (external and cranial), those offering most precise measurements were selected, trying to minimize any possible correlation between them and maximizing the size of samples (Wilson et al. 1991). From the external ones only wing variables were used, except from IIIF2; and from cranials, CBL, MTB, JOB, I-M^, P'^-M^, and I-Ms were used. Once the consistency of grouping together the different geographic populations (Congo and Zaire on one side, Kenya and Tanzania on the other) was confirmed through the axis of prin-.
