Figure 1

Effect of light regimes on clutch-size and egg-viability. a: In Camponotus compressus (CC), clutch-size is reduced under LL compared to LD and DD, whereas in C. paria (CP) it does not differ among three light regimes. Light regimes are plotted along the abscissa and clutch-size along the ordinate. Error bars represent 95% confidence interval around the mean for visual hypothesis testing. b: Percentage egg-viability of both species is greater under LL and LD compared to DD. Light regimes are plotted along the abscissa and percentage viability along the ordinate. Error bars represent 95% confidence interval around the mean for visual hypothesis testing.
