Table 2.
Number of analysed presences and absences and measures of the overall similarity between the predictions produced by modelling combined species distribution data and by fuzzy logic operations between individual species models. For model abbreviations, please see Section 2. Spearman's correlations (with Dutilleul's correction for spatial autocorrelation) were all highly significant (P < 0.001).
| Model comparison | N events | N nonevents | Spearman's correlation | Fuzzy numerical comparison |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| C1 versus C2 (favourability for presence of both) | 2412 | 3052 | 0.873 | 0.830 |
| D1 versus D2 (favourability for presence of any) | 4273 | 1191 | 0.840 | 0.855 |
| E1 versus E2 (favourability for B. bufo instead of E. calamita) | 1142 | 719 | 0.788 | 0.724 |
| F1 versus F2 (favourability for E. calamita instead of B. bufo) | 719 | 1142 | 0.861 | 0.676 |
