FIGURE 3. Correlogram showing the Spearman correlations among the coral (top 2 lines, left 2 columns) and brittle star (bottom 9 lines, right 9 columns) variables. Lower panel: blue gradient indicating a positive correlation (dark blue meaning high correlation) and red gradient indicating a negative correlation (dark red meaning a strong negative correlation). Diagonal: probability density functions for individual variables. Upper panel: biplots corresponding to each variable pair. Sample sizes: n=10 for lines 1–2, n=52 for lines 3–5 (with data on oral and aboral sides of the ophiuroids, see methods), n=124 for lines 6–10 (with data on aboral side only, see methods).Published as part of Cook, Isobel, Okanishi, Masanori & Pante, Eric, 2023, Growth in two deep-sea associates: the octocoral Pseudogorgia bellona and the euryalid snake star Asteroschema ajax, pp. 82-94 in Zootaxa 5336 (1) on page 87, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5336.1.3, http://zenodo.org/record/826851
