Matrix of results from BNC: (i) the lower and left half of the matrix indicates the distance (metres) at which a spatial association was found using the analysis.

A positive value indicates attraction, and a negative value indicates repulsion: (ii) the upper and right half of the matrix indicates the distance at which a spatial association was found using the analysis. If a positive value indicates attraction among species at similar life-stages, then a negative value indicates attraction among species at opposite life-stages. In every case, the distances correspond to the point at which the spatial association is more important. The numbers in italics are the number of spatial associations that each species exhibited, corresponding to the results plotted in that half of the matrix. The cells marked in bold indicate that that pair of species showed similar association to a habitat (Ledo et al 2013), if the relation between species is positive or showed attraction and repulsion to a habitat if the relation is negative. Ms refers to Morphospecies, from Ledo et al. 2012.
