Table 3. Relatedness classifications for nests from German and Spanish samples.

  FS HS U Not FS nresolved n total
Germany 73 (76.8%) 10 (10.5%) 3 (3.2%) 9 (9.5%) 95 (79.2%) 120
Spain 33 (66.0%) 9 (18.0%) 5 (10.0%) 3 (6.0%) 50 (84.7%) 59
Total 106 (73.1%) 19 (13.1%) 8 (5.5%) 12 (8.3%) 145 (81.0%) 179

Nest-wide classifications were of: only full-siblings (FS), one or more pairs of half-siblings (HS), one or more pairs of unrelated nestlings (U), or one or more pairs of “not full-siblings” (NFS) for cases where full-sibling relationships could be rejected but definitive differentiation between HS and U could not be made. n resolved refers to the number of nests for which a class could be assigned and n total represents the total number of nests assessed. Number in () is the percentage of category based on n resolved. For n resolved, () is the percentage resolved based on ntotal.
