Fig. 5: Levels of protection received by different stimulus types resulting from invertebrate predators’ behaviour.
From: Mapping the adaptive landscape of Batesian mimicry using 3D-printed stimuli
a, The mantis (Mantidae spp.) level of protection is the latency to attack in seconds. b,c, The jumping spider (b; P. audax) and crab spider (c; S. globosum) level of protection is a count of aggressive behaviours towards the stimulus, subtracted from 0 to match the direction of response axes in other figures, with higher values indicating greater protection. The bold points show the mean values and the vertical lines show the 95% confidence intervals based on the t-distribution for the log-transformed positive data. Faint points show results of individual trials. The capital letters indicate groupings that show no significant difference after a Tukey post hoc test (P > 0.05). The numbers at the bottom of each panel give the sample size (number of presentations). The solid blue border represents the neutral stimulus, and the dashed red border represents the negative stimulus. The code above is a unique label for each stimulus type, with the letters indicating the species used as an end point and the numbers indicating the weighting.
