Abstract

Sex determination in Mus spretus Lataste, 1883 by means of metric characters of the pelvis
Discriminant analysis is used to differenciate sexes in Mus spretus. Linear discriminant function is based on six morphometric measures from pelvis bones and allows the correct allocation of speciments in 98.0% of the cases. The descriminant function offers a useful procedure for sex determination in bone material from diverse procedence.
