Figure 7

Cranial morphology and shapes in a morphospace of Congolius gen. n. and relative (Cryptothylax) or similar (Hyperolius) genera from the lowland Congo Basin. The morphospace is expressed by a principal component analysis of geometric morphometric landmarks. Cg (Cryptothylax greshoffii, IVB-H-CD15-169, male), Cr (Congolius robustus gen. et comb. n., ZMUC-R.771175, male), Hb (Hyperolius balfouri, IVB-H-CD15-061, male), and Ht (H. tuberculatus, IVB-H-CD15-010, male). Reconstructions in dorsal, frontal, and lateral views are based on high-resolution X-ray microcomputed tomography. Skull views are scaled to a similar size among the four taxa. See Supplementary Fig. S4 for comparison of all scanned specimens.
