Figure 32. Baraminic distance correlation (BDC) results for the Paracrocodylomorpha subset dataset using: A) Pearson correlation coefficient and B) Spearman correlation coefficient. Black squares indicate significant positive correlation, whereas open circles indicate significant negative correlation. Figure 33: 3D multidimensional scaling (MDS) results for the Paracrocodylomorpha subset dataset in two views: A and B. Colors: Green - Poposauroidea; blue - Loricata; red - Ticinosuchus.
