. This is evident in both bivariate plots of individual measurements as well as in the principal components analysis. Although the two species differ substantially in overall size (as evidenced by their respective scores on PC­1 axis; table 24), their significant difference on PC­2 is due solely to mesopterygoid fossa width, and they are statistically identical on all subsequent PC axes (table 24).

The distinctly small hind feet, black instead of more brown ears, and darker dorsal pelage more finely streaked with black are characters useful for field separation of these two species, other than general body size.

Individuals of both sexes were in reproductive condition (pregnant females and males with scrotal testes and enlarged vesicular glands) while still partly in subadult pelage and with completely erupted but unworn molar teeth suggesting that breeding commences at an early age.</paragraph>

Table 25 lists the standardized discriminant coefficients for the 16 variables included in the analysis, and figure 76 provides a histogram of the scores for individuals of both clades on the single discriminant axis extracted. This analysis correctly classifies all 20 individuals to their respective cytochrome­b clades, despite what appears to be rather minimal separation on the single axis obtained in the analysis (fig. 77). For the moment, we assign no special taxonomic significance to this difference, although such may be supported by additional samples. Rather, we only highlight this difference, both to illustrate the parallel pattern of differentiation in molecular as well as morphological characters and to further emphasize the number of strongly defined and differentiated haplotype clades of small­bodied

Within our sample from the Rio Jurua´, the skull is long with a relatively narrow braincase, but it differs only in general size, rather than in proportions, from other species in the genus (fig. 73, and above). The carotid circulation pattern is of the primitive
