Extended Data Fig. 2: Climatic preferences of Middle–Late Triassic pterosauromorph lineages.
From: Climate drivers and palaeobiogeography of lagerpetids and early pterosaurs
a, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of variables of climatic importance showing early pterosaurs (n = 23) and all lagerpetids (n = 26). b–e, raincloud plots comparing climatic variables between early pterosaur and all lagerpetids. Results of statistical comparisons are reported in Supplementary Table 2. Abbreviations: MAP, Mean Annual Precipitation; MAT, Mean Annual Temperature; P, precipitation; T, temperature. The box plots display the median and IQR, the upper whiskers extends from the 75th percentile to the largest value and the lower whiskers extends from the 25th percentile to the lowest value.
