Hatch rate data for “all female” class represents median, with interquartile range in parentheses. For others, the figure is for egg hatch rate from an individual female, with numbers of eggs in parentheses. Survival rate of eggs is given as the proportion of viable eggs (i.e., those that showed signs of development) that hatched.
