Bar and whisker plots comparing the A lengths and B widths of lower first molars (M1s) of Gerbillus from Quesna (n = 4) with those of modern species. Of 11 species currently known from Egypt, the Quesna molars overlap in size with only G. andersoni (n = 10), G. campestris (n = 10), G. floweri (n = 9), and G. perpallidus (n = 8), and they are closest in mean dimensions to those of G. floweri and G. campestris. Crosses represent mean values; solid bars are two standard deviations of the mean; lines indicate the ranges of measured values
