Table 1 Range of the size variations (length and width: min., max.; average± Sm = σ/√n; v = 100 σ/average L or W): A. of the different loci of teeth of Protadelomys cartieri Hartenberger, 1969 and B. length and width for some loci only Protadelomys lugdunensis Hartenberger, 1969 from Egerkingen (MP 14; Swiss Jura). For A: equations (Y) of the regression lines and correlation rates (R2) between length and width of the different loci of teeth
