Extended Data Fig. 5: Changes in the number of species in each of four quartiles on the basis of the distribution of values of all species in each whole time series.
From: Disproportionate declines of formerly abundant species underlie insect loss

In comparison to Fig. 4, there are more species and more individuals in the higher quartiles, given the naturally low number of very abundant species (see Extended Data Fig. 4a,c). Here, there isan equal number of observations in each quartile, whereas in Fig. 4, the spacing (in log space) between bins is equal.
