The relationship between density and distance of dispersing insects
Open accessAbstract
Abstract. 1. The data for dispersal of Drosophila pseudoobscura of Dobzhansky & Wright (1943) were re‐examined and an improved description found for them. 2. The equation that best described the dispersal of D.pseudoobscura was found not to be applicable to the dispersal of five other insect species. 3. Eight equations describing the density‐distance relation were fitted to the dispersal data of eight insect species. No equation fitted all the data adequately. 4. A general expression was deduced from comparison of the eight equations, and found to fit all species better than any of the special cases.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
