Cryptic diversity in <i>Ptyodactylus</i> (Reptilia: Gekkonidae) from the northern Hajar Mountains of Oman and the United Arab Emirates uncovered by an integrative taxonomic approach - Fig 4

<p><b>Visualization of the climatic space occupied by <i>Ptyodactylus orlovi</i> (1) and <i>Ptyodactylus ruusaljibalicus</i> sp. nov. (2) based on PCA-env (A) and ENFA (B).</b> (A) The niches of both species are displayed on a multi-dimensional scale represented by the first two axes of a principal component analyses (PCA) summarizing the entire study area. (B) The x-axis shows marginality and the y-axis specialization. In both figures the grey shadings reflect the density of the occurrences of each species by cell. The dashed and solid contour lines illustrate, respectively, 50% and 100% of the available background environment. The significance of the equivalency and similarity tests is shown with an asterisc (*).</p
