Fig. S5.

Comparisons of local richness estimates generated by the λ₅ equation (x axes) and three other methods (y axes, with each method corresponding to a row). Separate estimates for samples from undisturbed habitats (Left) and from disturbed habitats (Right) are given. Points are ecological groups, and lines through points indicate 95% CIs. Lines of unity are shown only for Chao 1 because the other methods work through interpolation instead of extrapolation, so average values are not comparable to λ₅ values. Shareholder quorum subsampling quorums are 0.90, and multiton targets are 4. (A) Chao 1 (undisturbed data). (B) Chao 1 (disturbed data). (C) Shareholder quorum subsampling (undisturbed data). (D) Shareholder quorum subsampling (disturbed data). (E) Multiton subsampling (undisturbed data). (F) Multiton subsampling (disturbed data).
