Corrections, changes, and additions for the
Proceedings of the Michigan Morphometrics Workshop

Edited by Rohlf and Bookstein
Part 1 "Introduction" by F. James Rohlf and Fred L. Bookstein
Pages 5 and 6: There have been updates to some of the software
packages:
There have been some changes made to DSDIGIT (additional
device support).
A problem has been found in the RELWARP program. The
numerical results are correct only if the baseline of the shape
coordinates is horizontal. This program has been superceded by a
new program TPSRW by F. James Rohlf. The new program provides
hardcopy output for many kinds of printers.
A new version of the TPSPLINE program is now available.
There is a new menu structure and hardcopy output is now provided
for many kinds of printers.
These new programs are available free of charge by FTP over
the Internet. Contact F. James Rohlf for details or to receive
copies of the new software by other means.

format (e.g., RS-170). Although the
scan rates of most scanning and
transmission electron microscopes are
too slow to permit them to directly
conform to an RS-170 format, many
manufactures of these instruments have
come to recognize the advantages of
digital images and image processing.
Accordingly, there is now a growing
movement toward the production of
digital images and/or the inclusion of
secondary RS-170 video output channels
as standard features of newer models.
In addition, scanning or

procedures (see Archie, 1985 and Goldman, 1988)" after "states"

tional program of phylogenetic analysis.
A number of recent studies have also
indicated that there is much to be
gained by using continuously varying
morphological variables to statistically
examine a variety of phylogenetic null
hypotheses (see Stearns, 1983; Cheverud
et al., 1985; Felsenstein, 1988; Grafen,
1989; Pagel and Harvey, 1989).
Column 2, line 2: replace "or" with "and"

arguments changed to (x-u,y-v).

used to denote the transpose of a matrix. In step 1 at the
bottom left column the prime just indicates another version of
these matrices — not their transpose.
Page 230, equation (3): the V should have a superscript t to
indicate that it is a transpose. The lines that follows should

columns containing the x and y-coordinates of the landmarks in
specimen 1, ..."
