  1. Syx% = relative residual standard error (%); RMSE root mean square error; AICC corrected Akaike information criteria; BIC Bayesian information criteria; β0 = parameter fixed at the upper limit of the largest diameter class recorded in the complete census used; β1 and β2 = parameters of the equations adjusted by nonlinear regression. The equations with the best fits for each species are highlighted in bold
