Table 2-2. Results of ANOVA examining the effects of plant age and the identity of the
 dominant ant species on the proportion of domatia occupied. Proportional
 occupancy was arcsine (square root) transformed to improve normality. Only
 2- and 5-yr-old trees primarily occupied by either Aztecapittieri or
 Crematogaster carinata were included in this analysis (only one tree within
 these age groups, which was dominated by Cephalotes setulifer, was
 excluded).
