Figure 1: Network describing the interactions (lines) between species of
Amazonian snakes (circles) and their food resources (triangle).
Figure 2: The number of categories of food resources consumed by
different snake species is positively associated with the snake average
body mass (slope = 1.41, R2 = 0.46, p < 0.01) in a network of
interactions between Amazonian snakes and their resources. Each point
represents a species and the colors represent the different snake
families. To avoid overlap, some points have been slightly offset from
their original position on the x-axis.
Figure 3: In simulations of species removal, changes in the level of
nestedness are positively associated with the snake average body mass of
the removed species (slope = 0.40, R2 = 0.37, p < 0.01). Note
the stronger, negative changes on nestedness are associated with Boidae
snakes (red).
Figure 4: The probability of the observed number of species of a given
lifestyle in a given module of being reproduced randomly. Red color
indicates higher frequency, with a 95% confidence interval.
Table 1: Relationship of the network structure analysis of interactions
between Amazonian snakes and their food resources. S = snake species
richness in the network; R = food resources richness (Note that with the
removal of species from the network occurs the loss of interactions,
which may reduce the number of resources); SD = average degree; C =
connectivity; N = nestedness; Nrel = relative nestedness; M =
modularity; Mrel = relative modularity; nM = number of food modules.
