Dear morphometricians,
these (below) are coming out right now. They make a simple point: if one
is working on structures with object symmetry but he/she is using just
one or the other side, as in many published studies, it might be often
(but not always!) a good idea to estimate first the other half by mirror
reflection.
Data and guidelines are provided as supplementary information.
If someone is interested and can't download the papers, please do get in
touch with me. They're not yet in my webpage.
Cheers
