Dear morphometrics,

my data contains 5 a priori determined groups. I did CVA in MorphoJ  
but I know CVA not necessarily reveals significant groups. Thus, I  
want to verify my groups statistically. Manova with CVs in Past reveal  
significant groups, comparison between groups in MorphoJ and Past,  
too. But, if I only use Procrusted coordinates or PCs, Manova in Past  
says there are no significant different groups. What do theses results  
say about my groups. Is significance with CVs in Manova enough to say  
that the 5 groups are really different in shape??
