Tibiotarsus length ltt (mm), tarsometatarsus length ltmt (mm), the ratio ltt/ltmt, and foot span lfoot (mm) in nine species of Galapagos finches (males and females combined) on Santa Cruz. N is number of specimens in sample, X is mean value, SD is standard deviation, and % is the percentage deviation of the observed measurement yobs from the trend line value ytrend, calculated as (yobs—ytrend)/(ytrend) × 100
