摘要
New methods of identification of the Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus), Red fox (Vulpes vulpes) and Corsac fox (Vulpes corsac) were developed, based on mandible size and its fragments in the adults, with mclust analysis, discriminant analysis and scatter diagrams performed and compared. Original data and centroid size corrected data were employed. The Red fox and the Corsac fox differ in the size, but not shape, of the mandible. The Arctic fox differs from both by mandible shape. The body of the mandible is shown to be the most useful part for identifying all three species analyzed.
