Ln-transformed relationship between basal metabolic rate (BMR) residuals and maximum longevity (tmax) in mammals (A; n =300) and birds (B; n = 167). Closed circles: individual mammalian species (A); gray circles: individual bird species (B). Both correlations are not statistically significant, even though they do not consider the effects of phylogeny.
