3 Appendix B. Quantifying leaf shape: We assembled leaf images for 88 focal taxa both from living Viburnum plants at the Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University (Jamaica Plain, MA) and from herbarium specimens in the Harvard University Herbaria (HUH) and the Yale Herbarium in the Peabody Museum of Natural History (YU). For the living collections (39 taxa) we photographed the adaxial surface of individual leaves on a white background with a scale bar. For herbarium specimens (49 taxa), we photographed entire herbarium sheets and then digitally traced and excised individual leaves, which were scaled and cropped into their own image files. We digitally cropped the petiole from each leaf, and scaled, reoriented, and binarized these images so that each contained a black silhouette of the adaxial lamina surface on a white background. The resulting dataset included individual leaf images for each taxon. We quantified the leaf outline directly using Elliptical Fourier analysis (EFA). This allows the outline of any closed, twodimensional shape to be quantified numerically, as a series of coefficients describing a set of harmonic ellipses [1]. McLellan and Endler [2] found that EFA described complex leaf shapes better than either singleparameter metrics of outline shape or traditional multivariate analysis of linear landmark measurements. We used the software suite SHAPE ver. 1.3 [3] to quantify the leaf outline using EFA for the lamina silhouette in each leaf image. We extracted the lamina outline as a chain code, rotationally aligning all outlines along a common homologous vector (leaf midrib), and calculated the elliptic Fourier descriptors for 300 harmonic ellipses for each laminar outline; this was the maximum number of harmonics possible with this software, producing the best possible fit to the original outline. In EFA, size can be represented as a function of the 0th Fourier harmonic. However, our preliminary analyses found size to be by far the greatest component of overall shape, obscuring other components of leaf morphology. Therefore we set SHAPE to scale our elliptic Fourier descriptors so that the 0th harmonic was constant across all leaves, which effectively controlled for variability in size. We then considered size separately from overall shape, measuring leaf area directly from the leaf images. We used principal component analysis (PCA) to reduce the large set of potentially correlated Fourier descriptors to a smaller set of uncorrelated principal components. These principal components defined independent axes of shape variation in lamina outline, allowing the principal component scores for a leaf to be treated as

4 continuous morphological characters. Because traditional PCA relies on the assumption that all observations are independent, we also performed a phylogenetic PCA [4] using the phylogeny described above. Because these analyses are far more computationally intensive, we analyzed a 10% subsample of the 300 harmonic ellipses (the first 120 EFD coefficients, describing 30 harmonic ellipses). Our phylogenetic PCA analysis produced nearly identical results to the nonphylogenetic analyses: in both cases, the first two principal component axes together accounted for > 95% of the variation in leaf shape observed in Viburnum. These axes showed a slight yet significant phylogenetic signal. Multivariate lambda for the principal component axes was near zero (λ 0.045). Nevertheless, the multivariate lambda value calculated was a better fit (AIC= ) than a multivariate lambda of zero (AIC= ). We conducted all subsequent regression analyses using the phylogenetic PCA axes only. References: 1 Kuhl, F. & Giardina, C Elliptic Fourier features of a closed contour.
