Relationship between pairwise relatedness of 62 Bombus hypnorum colony queens, whose genotypes were constructed from worker sibships, and distance between the estimated positions of their nests, on a log.10 transformed scale, in a suburban 2 × 2 km study area in Norwich, UK. Black line, regression equation (y = [−1.63 × 10−2] + [3.94 × 10−6]x); gray ribbon, 95% confidence interval; dotted line, null hypothesis (y = 0). The slope is not significant (F 1,1709 = 1.173, p = 0.279, R 2 = 0.0007)
