Figure 1

Species' abilities differed at distances of 5 and 10 cm (see Table 1 for statistics). For this graph, individual performances were pooled for each species (for individual performance data see Supplementary Figure). Trials per species per distance of 0, 5, 10, 25 and 50 cm are given below the species names (parentheses enclose trials per individual). We performed a total of 569 trials.
