Larval behaviour in the 11 species at 40 °C. A Scatter plot of the bend probability at 40 °C against the minimum habitat temperature Tmin. B Scatter plot of the crawling speed at 40 °C against the minimum habitat temperature Tmin. C Scatter plot of the difference of the bend probability between at 40 and at 24 °C (bend probability at 40 °C − bend probability at 24 °C) against the minimum habitat temperature Tmin. D Scatter plot of the difference of the crawling speed between 40 and at 24 °C (crawling speed at 40 °C − crawling speed at 24 °C) against the minimum habitat temperature Tmin. The median ± sem was shown in A–D. Sample numbers for data at 40 °C were as follows: Dvir: n = 20; Dmel: n = 28; Dmoj: n = 23; Dper: n = 21; Dpse: n = 16; Dsec: n = 27; Dwil: n = 27; Dere: n = 22; Dmau: n = 26; Dana: n = 23; and Dyak: n = 20. Sample numbers for data at 24 °C were the same as Fig. 3C, D. The red lines showed the linear regression functions, and the shaded areas represented the 95% confidence bands. The point estimates of the Pearson correlation and their 95% confidence intervals were 0.17 and [− 0.48, 0.70] in A and − 0.17, [− 0.70, 0.48] in B, 0.17, [− 0.48, 0.70] in C, and − 0.50, [− 0.84, 0.15] in D. E Backward crawling probability at 40 °C of each species. Probability ± standard error based on the binomial distribution was shown. Sample numbers in E were as follows: Dvir: n = 20; Dmel: n = 28; Dmoj: n = 23; Dper: n = 22; Dpse: n = 14; Dsec: n = 27; Dwil: n = 27; Dere: n = 23; Dmau: n = 26; Dana: n = 23; and Dyak: n = 21
