A Mean observed richness (±SE) and B Mean Shannon diversity index values (±SE) for dissected and oviposited S. virgatus eggs. Communities were sampled at Day 0 and Day 25 of incubation in soil slurry. Non-metric multidimensional scaling plots were created by using Bray Curtis distance to calculate pairwise distances based on community composition on C) Day 0 and D) Day 25. Three dimensions were used to calculate distances, but only the most influential two are pictured here
