Abstract
HIGHLIGHTS Ruditapes decussatus from four sites belonging to Monastir bay (Tunisia) was first time analyzed based on morphometry and comparative statistics. The site of Ksiba was distinguishable from other sites by larger and heavier specimens. The sub-trapezoidal shape was dominant with small- size classes, in most sites. The principal component analysis (PCA) revealed different population groups, with two intra-population groups for Sokrine site. Allometric relationships showed highly significant correlation with different growth patterns (positive allometric, negative allometric and isometric).
