TABLE 5. Area spanned by eight overlain lateral suture elements for C. springeri. Different sets of eight right sutures, selected randomly from a pool of 12, produce different spanned areas, but the area spanned by right sutures is always greater than that spanned by left sutures. The 95% confidence interval for the rights area is 43.13 to 53.37 (tc=2.776, df=4, ci=5.12); the left area of 40.08 falls below this interval, indicating that left sutures span significantly less area than right sutures.
