Table 1. Effect sizes of the impact of the presence of Aedes aegypti on the larval performance and behaviour of Spodoptera littoralis growing on cotton plants.

Variable measured	Effect size (d)
Feeding time	−11.3
Emigration	2.24
Development time	1.17
Weight
12 days	0.15
16 days	−0.30
20 days	−0.52
Pupae	−1.03
Survival	−0.15
Sex ratio	0.05

An absolute value of 0.2 corresponds to a small effect, 0.5 to a medium effect and 0.8 to a large effect [19].
