Pairwise comparisons of centroid size by morphospecies for parents (wild-caught and F1) and for offspring (F1 and F2) in our common garden experiment. For parents the centroid size reflects differences in adult body size among morphospecies whereas for offspring it reflects growth rate (all offspring individuals were photographed at an age of 6 months; see material and methods). Black error bars indicate the mean ± standard error, whereas the spread of the data is indicated by the grey bars (mean ± standard deviation). Statistics result from Wilcoxon rank-sum tests with Bonferroni correction. Statistically significant differences are indicated with asterisks (0.05 > * > 0.01 > ** > 0.001 > ***)
