The dataset includes information on sex, with individuals categorized as male or female, as well as key body size metrics such as snout-to-vent length (SVL), measured from the tip of the snout to the posterior end of the vent, providing an overall estimate of body size, and head width (HW), which represents the maximum width of the head and is useful for assessing allometric relationships and potential differences between sexes. Additionally, individual digit lengths from both forelimbs and hind limbs were recorded, allowing for comparisons of limb proportions. Moreover, the dataset includes digit ratios, calculated from specific digit measurements. The specimens were obtained from an archival collection, located in the Department of Zoology at the Poznań University of Life Sciences. Please note, that for some individuals, the dataset lacks values for digit length and digit ratios in the forelimbs. This is due to some archival specimens having forelimbs in poor condition, making accurate measurement impossible.
