From: A simple dynamic model explains the diversity of island birds worldwide

Extended Data Fig. 4

Plots show the observed total number of species, cladogenetic species and colonizations versus those simulated by the model. Median and 95% percentiles are shown for 1,000 simulations of each archipelago. Selected archipelagos mentioned in the main text or well-known archipelagos for which one or more of the diversity metrics are under- or overestimated are highlighted in colour. Dashed line is y = x. See also Fig. 3.
