Figure 1.

The relationship between larval density (number of larvae per gram of carcass) and mean larval mass in the Full Care (A) and No Care (B) treatments. For the Full Care treatment, we present data for both unmanipulated broods (dark gray circles) and experimentally reduced broods (light gray circles). Lines are linear or polynomial regression lines. For the Full Care treatment, we present regression lines excluding and including the experimentally reduced broods (solid and dashed lines, respectively).
