3-way edges and intersections.

(a) A small, 3-way network consisting of 5 nodes v1, v2, v3, v4 and v5 and two 3-way edges e1 and e2. Edge e1 connects nodes v3, v4 and v5 and edge e2 connects nodes v1, v2 and v3. (b) Venn diagram for a 3-way intersection of species. a is the number of families present in species A, b is the number of families present in species B, c is the number of families present in species C, ab is the number of families present in species A and species B, ac is the number of families present in species A and species C, bc is the number of families present in species B and species C, abc is the number of families present in species A, B and C, a is the number of families present only in species A, b is the number of families present only in species B and c is the number of families present only in species C.
