title: TABLE 2 in Revision of the cichlid fish genus Gnathochromis (Teleostei: Cichlidae) from Lake Tanganyika with the description of a new genus Jabarichromis gen. nov.

description: TABLE 2. Abbreviations for all measurements and counts used in this study. Traits that were quantified from X-ray images are marked with an (X) all other traits were obtained directly from the specimen. For each morphometric trait it is further indicated if they were size corrected to standard length (% SL) or absolute head length (% HL). Loading scores of PC1, PC2 and PC3 based on 518 individuals. Highest scores are indicated in bold font.
