What Can Interaction Webs Tell Us About Species Roles?

Similarity between Tatoosh network groupings.
Alluvial diagrams comparing the species groupings for (A) complete and trophic webs, (B) complete and nontrophic webs, and (C) trophic and nontrophic webs. Complete network coloring matches colors in Fig 5. Note that the light red group in the complete grouping does not necessarily correspond to the light red group in the trophic group, and so on. Flows between groupings show species in common between two groups; line thickness is proportional to number of species in common. The complete Tatoosh network is organized into groups that are almost perfectly nested in the trophic grouping. The complete grouping also matches closely with the nontrophic groupings, but the trophic and nontrophic groupings are comparatively dissimilar.
