Results of canonical phylogenetic ordination for reproduction of 17 species in a temperate South American snake community

Taxa	Contribution (%)	F	p
Hydrodynastini	43.1	11.4	.05
Hydropsini	20.6	8	.01
Xenodon	9.8	4.8	.03

Clades are ranked by amount of variation explained at each node. Percentage of the contribution (relative to explains variation—67.4% –); and F and p values for each variable are given (9,999 permutations were used) for each main matrix. Note that no groups used for selection of variables yielded individual p ≤ .05.
