I am separating two different species on the basis of certain characters. I want to differentiate those two species with respect to their characters measurements. Reading previous research papers, I came to know that Principal component analysis and Canonical variate analysis is required for above said question.
Please guide me with criteria & requirements and procedure for establishing these statistical test.

Dear Salman,
You might also consider binary logistic regression as it sounds like you are making a decision of which group to assign your data to on the basis of over variables. The advantage of this technique is that you don't need to reduce your set of variables. It works with both scale variables and binary. Ordinal and multinomial variables need to be transformed into multiple binary variables. You would also need is some data on the correct group assignment.
