Subject: CVA limitations?

Hi,
I was wondering if there were any limits to the number of groups that
can be distinguished between with CVA? I'm comparing facial morphology
in 65 populations of threespine stickleback fish, but don't know if CVA
is valid with so many groups. Is there a relation between number of
specimens per group and how many groups can be compared? At some point
does the power of the analysis suffer? Really need help with this since
nobody in our stats department seems to know the answer. Feel free to
respond to [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Thanks, James
