Fig. 6.

Overlaps of the confidence ellipses. This single plot combines confidence ellipses for the most relevant variable categories. Significant overlaps exist among high species richness, wide geographic distribution (range 5—cosmopolitan distribution), and small male body size in the two dimensions of the MCA. Note also a large overlap between confidence ellipses for big male body size and low species richness

41.82 % of the high species richness confidence ellipse area overlaps with the small male body size confidence ellipse

69.56 % of the small male body size confidence ellipse area overlaps with the high species richness confidence ellipse

36.99 % of the high species richness confidence ellipse area overlaps with the geographic range 5 confidence ellipse

64.33 % of the geographic range 5 confidence ellipse area overlaps with the high species richness confidence ellipse

54.22 % of the small male body size confidence ellipse area overlaps with the geographic range 5 confidence ellipse

56.68 % of the geographic range 5 confidence ellipse area overlaps with the small male body size confidence ellipse

50.53 % of the low species richness confidence ellipse area overlaps with the big male body size confidence ellipse

57.65 % of the big male body size confidence ellipse area overlaps with the low species richness confidence ellipse
