a, Largest cluster fraction (that is Berger-Parker index), b, Gini coefficient, c, Shannon index, d, evenness, e, Theil index, f, Simpson’s index (with replacement), and g, Hoover index for experimental egg chambers (red points), along with theoretical predictions given by the Forest Fire model simulations (grey; parameters \(p_{{{\mathrm{i}}}} = 0.0001\), \(p_{{{\mathrm{t}}}} = 0.7\), \(p_{{{\mathrm{r}}}} = 0.158114,\;p_{{{\mathrm{c}}}} = 0.026\)) averaged over 2,200 simulation runs. Grey error bars indicate the standard deviation in simulations.
