Figure 3.1« Number of dead ants at the end of the colony-level competition experiment.
Fire ants (RIFA) experienced higher mortality than crazy ants (RCA) in control colonies
(p = 0.0250), but not in competition colonies (p = 0.1696). Because the standardizing
factor affected the total number of ants in a colony unit, the number of dead ants for each
species and treatment is divided into worker number colony units and worker biomass
colony units. Error bars are +1 SE.
