Principal components analysis (PCA) ordination showing the difference of morphological features between the two different Lernaea species collected in the wild and from an experimental (laboratory) infection. Abbreviations: Lcy, L. cyprinacea; Lcr, L. cruciate; l, specimens collected from the laboratory infection; w, specimens collected in the wild. Notes: Samples are divided into four groups (1 to 4). For example, 4_Lcr_l indicates group 4, comprising specimens of L. cruciata collected from the laboratory infection
