Extended Data Fig. 3: Pre-hurricane regional patterns of soapberry bug beak length.

Extended Data Fig. 3

Boxplot summarizing regional patterns of beak length in soapberry bugs sampled before the hurricane separated by sex (male and female) and wing form (macropterous insects in orange and brachypterous insects in blue). Model selection using linear mixed models suggests that females have longer beaks than males and macropterous individuals have longer beaks than brachypterous individuals (LMM: F(1, 1079.) = 18.286, P < 0.001; Supplementary Table 6) The upper and lower edges of each box indicate the first and third quartile, the midline indicates the median value and the whiskers show the 95% confidences intervals with dots as outliers. Box plots labelled with different letters are significantly different (Tukey’s test: P < 0.01, see Supplementary Table 23). Sample sizes provided in grey below each boxplot.
