FIGURE 3.
Prey mass consumption by two spider species at different elevations: Cyclosa sp. (a) and Leucauge sp. (b). Origin and transplant groups: Lo, Low‐elevation origin site (Leucauge n = 10 and Cyclosa n = 10); Lt, Low‐elevation spiders transplanted to high‐elevation site (Leucauge n = 11 and Cyclosa n = 11); Ho, High‐elevation origin site (Leucauge n = 10 and Cyclosa n = 10); and Ht, High‐elevation spiders transplanted to low‐elevation site (Leucauge n = 12 and Cyclosa n = 8). The color of the arrows (from red to blue) indicates the decrease in air temperature from the low‐ to the high‐elevation site. Symbols beside bars in (b) indicate significant differences between the high‐elevation source and the low‐elevation transplanted populations (***),and between the high‐elevation source and the high‐elevation transplanted populations (**) (Tukey's HSD test, p < 0.05)
