Figure 5.
Relationship between species richness and the slope of diversity–stability with areas. Species richness was negatively related with the slope of diversity–stability with areas (data from Figure 2a), indicating that a higher species richness at larger area was associated with a lower value of the slope of diversity–stability relationship. The values of species richness were averaged each given spatial scale. Error bars indicate 1 SE [Colour figure can be viewed at wileyonlinelibrary.com]
