Bottom and top of the box show the 25th and 75th percentile, respectively. Whiskers show maximum and minimum values or 1.5 times interquartile range, whichever is the smaller. a Tortuosity index. b Flight speed. c Angular velocity. Different letters indicate boxes that are significantly different (Tukey P < 0.001, Two-way ANOVA). Numbers of tracks in clean air; dipping (41), smooth (20) and tortuous (8) and in host odour; dipping (25), smooth (7) and tortuous (17)
