Abstract
A biometric analysis of 26 variables measured on 32 adult dugong skulls (16 males, 16 females) describes the nature of the sexual dimorphism present. Further sources of variation include the expected size variation and the continuance of attenuated allometric growth patterns into adulthood.Keywords
