Correlations between skull and mandible dimensions
BASILAR LENGTH AND MAXIMAL MANDIBULAR LENGTH IN ALLOHIPPUS AND EXTANT EQUUS:
SKULL-MANDIBLE CORRELATIONS
1. Skull and Mandible lengths
For a sample of 375 various extant Equus skulls and mandibles, the correlation is good: R2=0.97.
Regressions are:
Basilar length of the skull (1) = [1.1775 * Maximal length of the mandible (1)] - 16.957.
Maximal length of the mandible (1) = [0.8257 * Basilar length of the skull (1)] + 25.448.
2. Muzzle lengths
For a sample of 161 various extant Equus skulls and mandibles, the correlation is smaller: R2 = 0.89.
Regressions are:
Skull muzzle length (5) = [1.0318 * mandible muzzle length (12)] + 7.9216.
Mandible muzzle length (12) = [0.8645 * skull muzzle length (5)] + 4.507.
3. Muzzle widths
For a sample of 336 extant Equus, the correlation R2 is only 0.80.
Regressions are:
Skull muzzle width (17) = [0.796 * mandible muzzle width (7)] + 16.8043.
Mandible muzzle width (7) = [1.0105 * skull muzzle width (17)] - 6.187.
(1), (5), (7), (17) refer to the illustrated system of measurements of skulls and mandibles.
