Table 1 Consistency of individual ranks over all tested behavioural traits measured in three contexts for larvae and four for adults of Phaedon cochleariae (L2, N = 35; L3, N = 51; A1, N = 48; A2, N = 45; A3, N = 41). Consistency was tested using Kendall's coefficient of concordance W. P-values remaining significant after correction for false discovery rate within a lifestage are indicated in bold; the uncorrected P-values are shown.
