Table 1.
Life tables parameters of C. cephalonica at constant temperatures (21, 26, 28, and 30°C).
Fig 1.
Gaussian distribution obtained by the average development time and the standard deviation of the experimental data [32] (red line), versus the raw experimental dataset.
The plot shows data specifically for the larval phase at constant temperature of 26°C, as an example of how the peak and the range indicated by the Gaussian distribution fairly differs from the real peak(s) of the population.
Fig 2.
Distribution of the single stages at 21, 26, 28 and 30°C calculated by the experimental data and by the Gaussian distribution obtained by mean and standard error of the development times of Corcyra cephalonica individuals.
The green line indicates the median of the experimental data. This figure is also an example of the difference between a model built using the Gaussian hypothesis and the model built using the actual distribution of the data.
