...The simplest overlap measures are species association (considering presence and absence in samples only) as an analog of the Jaccard or Sorensen index indices given below, "percentage co-occurrence," SA = 2Mc/(Mh + Mi) (Agrell I945, Iversen I954, Whittaker & Fairbanks I958), and species correlation (comparing species importance values in samples) as an analog of percentage similarity, M M SC = min (phj, pij) = I -0.5 ph -p j1= j1= (Whittaker & Fairbanks I958, Schoener 1970, Price I971, Colwell & Futuyma I97I)....

...To briefly illustrate the degree of change in community structure across the predator transition, we used published surveys to calculate average community similarity [using species relative abundance and an index of overlap (140)] between the two community types relative to the average similarity within community types....

...As such, it supports the "compression" hypothesis of MacArthur and Pianka (1966), elaborated in MacArthur and Wilson (1967), that an early consequence of the coming together of two species should be that "the variety of occupied habitats (or more correctly the space searched) should shrink, or at…...

...Of special value in the latter type of analyses are the particularization and measurement of the kinds of resource overlap (Kohn 1966, Horn 1966, MacArthur and Levins 1967)....

...More specifically, if the totals of the number of observations in the individual tables are different by a ratio of more than 2 to 1, or the proportions of the observations in the two categories being compared fall outside the range 0.20-0.80, the method is not very suitable (Cochran 1954)....

...If that is suspected to be the case, it is not recommended that the data all be lumped (Cochran 1954)....
