Appendix S1. Population dynamics of three leaf miner taxa from 2003 to 2009

3
From 2003 to 2009, the spatiotemporal population dynamics of focal leaf miner taxa
4
has been annually monitored on twenty medium-sized trees (n=18 in 2008 and 2009).
5
These trees are confined to a dense oak stand (ca. 5 ha) within the same landscape
6
as the experimental trees referred to in the body of the article. In each year, we
7
sampled the density and larval survival of leaf miner individuals on ca. 500 leaves per
8
tree (mean=535.3; SD=159.7; see Gripenberg, Salminen and Roslin 2007 for more
9
information on the sampling design). In the figure below, vertical bars indicate the
10
density of each leaf miner species in each year, and lines connect the yearly survival
11
rates for each species. In panel A, densities and survival rates are averaged across 18
12
trees growing in a relatively dense oak stand, whereas panels B-D show the dynamics
13
of the leaf miner species on three individual trees.
