Abundances of the wax ester lipid class relative to total lipids in 106 samples of gastrointestinal contents collected from 35 bowhead whales. Five summary statistics are visualized in the boxplot: median, the two hinges, which correspond to the 25th and 75th percentiles (the first and third quartiles), and the upper and lower whiskers, which extend from the upper and lower hinges to the largest and smallest values no further than 1.5 times the inter-quartile range (the range between the hinges). The single asterisk indicates the forestomach is significantly different from the ileum, upper colon, and colon (P < 0.001). Double asterisks indicate the duodenum is significantly different from the upper colon and colon (P < 0.03)
