Abstract
A statistical method of analyzing for hybridization based on exponential growth curves is presented. It is pointed out that with "truly cross-sectional data" such as those on the sunfishes (genus Lepomis) reported here, it is possible to analyze for hybridization based on static variations separately from that based on the average growths of populations. The technique of statistical linear comparisons is extended to analyze for the degree of intermediacy of the hybrids as an alternative to the hybrid index approach. Applications of the statistical method of analyzing for hybridization based on the constants of exponential curves and of the method based on static allometry are shown on a real set of data for the first time.
