Fig. 5: Confusion matrices showing the conditional frequency of classification of holocentrids based on sounds at different taxonomic levels resulting from flexible discriminant analyses.

Matrices concern (a) Myripristis species, b Myripristis species of group 1, c Myripristis species of group 2, d Sargocentron species, e Neoniphon species, and (f) all species of Holocentridae investigated. Variables used to perform these analyses were those used in the PCAs. The probability of correct classification is found in the diagonal of the matrix. Boxes in (a) indicate probabilities of classification that correspond to the same Myripristis group.
