Fig. 3From: Moving apart together: co-movement of a symbiont community and their ant host, and its importance for community assemblyTendency of myrmecophiles associated with red wood ants to leave the nest. (a) Tendency of occurring at the periphery of the nest (abundance in a peripheral pitfall/abundance in an intranidal pitfall) (b) Tendency of occurring outside the nest (abundance in an outside pitfall/abundance in an intranidal pitfall) (c) Mean distance travelled by the 10% top dispersers for each species. Functional groups: P predator, S scavenger, S* extranidal scavenger, D detritivore, D* detritivore/parasite. Error bars indicate standard errors.
