Fig. 3

Distribution of extra-pair offspring (mean ± 95% credible intervals) across the hatching order in (a) black coucal and (b) white-browed coucal clutches. In black coucals extra-pair offspring were over-represented among the last hatchings, whereas there was no such bias in white-browed coucals. The numbers above the error bars refer to the number of genotyped offspring from the respective hatching order. For the interpretation of statistical differences using posterior means and 95% credible intervals see Fig. 1 and methods
