Celia,

I'm not sure what you mean by the "Nemenyi test."  Kruskal-Wallis and
similar tests based on ranks do not compare distributions.  They focus
on shifts (e.g., differences in medians among distributions that have
the same shape).

How do your continuous distributions behave?  What is the reason for
comparing the whole distributions?  How large are the samples?
