Phylogenetic tree topology of Varanus used in this study, based on Thompson et al. (2009) and generated using Mesquite (Maddison & Maddison, 2017). Major clades are labelled, including (a) Gouldii, (b) Odatria, (c) Acanthurus, and (d) Tristis. Numbers at each node indicate phylogenetically independent contrasts in the form of Procrustes distances for associated branches. Line diagrams indicate the mean shape for each species, and colored branches indicate Habitat/substrate group. Scale = 2 mm
