(a) Boxplots showing the proportion of visits (I_visit) by the male to the various chambers containing the females in varying density in vegetation presence (E1 set). High (H) and medium (M) chambers having eight females (and high plant density) and four females (and medium plant density) respectively had a higher proportion of visits by the male compared to the low (L) (two females and low plant density) and null (N) (one female and no plants) chambers. Similar alphabets placed above the plots indicate no statistical difference whereas dissimilar alphabets indicate significant statistical difference (p < 0.05). The lower and upper ends of the box plots represent the 1st and 3rd quartiles, the horizontal line within each boxplot is the median, and the upper and lower whiskers are the ×1.5 the interquartile range. Outlines are shown as open circles. (b) Boxplots showing the proportion of time (I_time) spent by the male in each of the chamber (E1 set). Males spent a significantly greater proportion of time in medium (M) chamber compared to the other three patches. Similar alphabets placed above the plots indicate no statistical difference whereas dissimilar alphabets indicate significant statistical difference (p < 0.05). The lower and upper ends of the box plots represent the 1st and 3rd quartiles, the horizontal line within each boxplot is the median, and the upper and lower whiskers are the ×1.5 the interquartile range. Outlines are shown as open circles.
