The bright dots indicate the existing species out of the 210 available species, identified by a unique Species ID. It can be seen that metastable states are present for pmut < 0.05. These states are separated by a transition regime, which becomes larger with increasing mutation rates. The simulations are generated using standard model parameters, L = 10, Θ = 0.25, pkill = 0.2, k = 33 and μ = 1/143.
