Figure 5. The bars show the most common instar present in each of the observed nests.

Significant pairwise differences in age structure (Holm-Bonferroni corrected Chi-squared tests, with juveniles comprising a single category) are shown with letters to the right of each species diagram for the subsocial species. A previous long-term study found Anelosimus jabaquara and A. dubiosus to be offset by one month in their phenology [31], so we show the age structure of these species here for comparative purposes.
