Abstract/Description: | Coccinella septempunctata Linnaeus exhibits three kinds of elytral coloration in cereal agroecosystems, especially in wheat cultivated in the northern plains of India. A multivariate morphometric study was conducted to see if any difference exists in the morphological make-up of the three elytral colour morphs, using multivariate statistical analyses. The results showed that the observed elytral colour variation has a strong morphological basis. The major sources of morphological variation are mainly concentrated on the legs. Our study reveals existence of stable elytral colour polymorphic populations in C. septempunctata. |
