Appendix 2. Allometry of ln joint diameter (μm) linearly regressed against ln dry lamellar mass (μg) for each pond population. The slope estimates the allometric relationship between joint size and lamellar size. Relationships are estimated separately for lateral and medial lamellae in each population. Population number refers to ponds shown in Appendix 1.
