| dc.description.abstract | In this paper, I check for correlations between the sex
ratio for males and females and precipitation in red millipedes
Centrobolus Cook, 1897. I found correlations between sex ratio
and precipitation (r=-0.68, Z score=-1.87, n=8, p=0.03) (y = -8.79x
+ 114). Differences of +4mm precipitation contributed to
differences in the sex ratio. The increase in the magnitude of this
factor resulted in a female-biased sex ratio. | en_ZA |
