Sauropsid species with overlapping residual variation.

The sauropsids species which have overlapping residual variation (in the sense of Werner and Griebeler [3] and Eq 3)) are shown. The raw data for each species (from supplementary online information of [3]) is body mass at maximum growth (BMatMG) in grams and the maximum growth rate AGR (also called Gmax in [2] and formal comment [1]) in grams per day, as found in the references in the rightmost column. The column AGR * BMatMG−0.75 is 10rv for residual variation rv given by Eq (3). The table is sorted in descending order by rv. The metabolic status (endotherm or ectotherm) of each species is shown and highlighted (endotherms in red, ectotherms in blue). In the Ref column, WG refers to of Werner and Griebeler [3], Grady to Grady et al. [14].
