Dear Dr. Poyatos,
thank you for your detailed response to the reviews and your well readable response letters.

I have minor suggestions to make for the fully revised manuscript:
R1#3:
1. Please merge the supplementary figures and merge sections S3 and 4 as you suggested.
2. And yes, please move Table S2 to the main text to make it Table 1 and modify the text accordingly.
3. Please insert your suggestion for Figure 2 to illustrate the multiple comparisons

R1#9: Please check how you can include your response to this reviewer point in the manuscript. Also to emphasize what you regard as being unique.

R1#17: Please check if you can include a sentence on the number of iterations in the method section in addition to the added sentence in response to R1#18

R2#3 Please check the entire manuscript text that you consistently use auxiliary information or variable as suggested by the reviewer

Both reviewers asked why species identity was not part of your analysis. Please check if you can include this point in implications or elsewhere in the discussion.

Apart from those mentioned in my list above, I ask you to please include all suggested modifications to the manuscript as you described them in the response letters.

I think your manuscript will greatly profit from the detailed reviews thanks to the time both reviewers invested.

Best wishes,
Kirsten Thonicke.
