Topál, Gy.; Csorba, G.: The subspecific division of Rhinolophus luctus Temminck, 1835, and the taxonomic status of R. beddomei Andersen, 1905 (Mammalia, Chiroptera)

For 15 variables marked with "+" (see above) further graphs (notched box­plots) showed the material of R. beddomei medians to be significantly different from all the others. An example is shown in Fig 14. (In the boxplots the horizontal Fig. 14. Notched boxplot of lower C-P4 length in R. luctus and R. beddomei, grouped by localities line represents the range of the sample, with vertical mark in the box as the median, the upper and lower margins (hinges) of boxes representing the inter­quartile range or midrange. Values outside the inner fences are plotted automati­cally with asterisks by the computer programme for some specimens slightly falling out of the sample, outside the outer fences with empty circles for strongly outstanding specimens. The boxes are notched at the median and return to full width at the lower and upper confidence interval values. Some of the outer confi­dence limits extend beyond the midrange. If the intervals around two medians do not overlap, one can be onfident that the two population medians are different [Wilkinson 1990]). In LP2-WIDTÄ. beddomei has overlaps with the Burmese and NE Indian (including Sikkim and Nepal) samples, while UC-WIDT, UP2-WIDT, LM1-M3-L and LM3-LENG of R. beddomei mostly overlap with the sample from C. Thailand, and LACFOR-W and UC-P4-LE with that of Malaysian
