Although the original and replicated figures (shown in the appendix) are similar, there are many noticeable differences. The overall size of 1200 pixels is consistent across both figures, but the sizing of each image differs despite the correct orientation. The images of individual species in the original figure are slightly larger than the ones in the replicate, making the interaction image in the original slightly smaller in comparison to that of the replicate. The letter labels also differ between each figure with lowercase letters in the original and uppercase letters in the replicate. The white squares behind each letter also differ in size between the two figures and are smaller in the original than the replicate. Another smaller detail that differs between the original and replicated figures is the arrow width, location, and color. In the original figure, the arrows are black and narrow, depicted closer to the middle of the interspecific interaction. In the replicate, the arrows are blue and wide, depicted closer to the edges of the interspecific interaction. The shapes of the arrowheads also differ, in the replicate figure, the wings are approximately 90 degrees in relation to the body whereas in the original figure, the wings are approximately 30 degrees in relation to the body.
