From: Comparative analysis of squamate brains unveils multi-level variation in cerebellar architecture associated with locomotor specialization

Fig. 6

Cerebellar size variation in squamates with different locomotor behaviours. a Scatter plot showing the correlation of cerebellum relative to whole-brain volume (in mm3) for selected representative squamate species (see colour code and symbols in bottom right corner). The coloured lines and shadings represent the phylogenetic generalized least squares (PGLS) regression lines and 95% confidence intervals for each locomotor mode, respectively. b Ridgeline plot showing the distribution of the cerebellum-to-whole-brain volume ratios (in percentage) for each indicated limbless or limb-reduced (top panels) or quadrupedal (bottom) locomotor mode. Colour gradient, ranging from yellow to blue, reflects the tail distribution probability.
