The average deviation from perfect reciprocity is 2 units. The percent standard deviation from reciprocity (Maxson and Wilson, 1975) normally calculated for MC'F studies is percent. This value is atypically high compared to earlier studies where these values typically average 10-15 percent. The high percent is an artifact of the low ID values measured between these Plethodon popula-.
