Ecological similarity between species pairs along individual niche axes and the joint niche.

1Overall morphological similarity calculated from Table 2, normalized values.
2Difference in preference for surface habitats, normalized values.
0.7, 0.8, 0.9 The values denote maximum Spearman’s rank correlation between BioClim variables allowed in calculation of Schoener’s D index. For calculations of the joint niche values of D index were standardized.
