Comparison of breaking point of sample specimens. Absolute breaking point per body weight (a), absolute breaking point per body length (b), and breaking point of sample specimens sorted into different groups (c, d). a Relationship of breaking point [g] and body weight [μg] and non-linear fit (solid lines) with allometric equations and additional 95% confidence intervals (dashed lines) of all taxa. b Relationship of breaking point [g] and body length [μm] and non-linear fit (solid lines) with allometric equations and additional 95% confidence intervals (dashed lines) of all taxa. c Absolute breaking point. d Breaking point per body weight. A, Archegozetes longisetosus; E, Euphthiracaroidea; P, Phthiracaroidea (PS, smaller than E; PE, same length as E; PXL, larger than E); S, Steganacarus magnus. Significant differences between groups are indicated by letters above the box plots
