Table S1 Mean biomass for individuals of thirty taxa from standing stock invertebrate resources
that had more than 20 individuals and were randomly subsampled to obtain biomass of each
taxon. The best fit model of the distribution of each taxon, the best fit model parameters that
were used to calculate the theoretical mean mass of each taxon, the Kolmogorov–Smirnov
goodness of fit p-value, and the calculated theoretical mean mass of each taxon are given below.
