The number of insect species (plant-eating as well as parasitic wasps) depending on the length of the grass shoots. The small empty squares on the diagonal red line mark the average shoot length and the total species diversity of the ten perennial grass species, which are also shown in the illustrations under the line. The black squares on the horizontal line indicate the values for the annual, five short-lived grass species.
