|
| Although the epicuticle may be degraded during the life of the host, that is an intrinsic factor leading to epibiont patchiness, not a result of taphonomy. |
|
| If increased density influences the occurrence of aggressive interactions, the degree of patchiness of a habitat will affect the frequency of behavioral interactions. |
