Figure New2. Informants ordered by their distance in plants reported (A,B,C) and in uses reported (D,E,F). Informants (see Table new1), are more differentiated by plant species reported (A, informants shown but plant species hidden for visual clarity) than by use reported (D, informants and uses shown). Elevation of informant community significantly fits the ordination in plantspace (B, r\(^2\) = 0.427, p = 0.002) and in usespace (E, r\(^2\) = 0.375, p = 0.001). See below for full fit reports.

In ordination space, it looks like the 2018 informants fall mostly near SR and GU informants (with a cluster of informants from Khani placed a bit closer to RA), and farther away from TK and SK.
Use-space is much more mixed, as you might expect given the broad use categories we employ (i.e. informants are using differnt plants but for the same broad purposes). The 3 informations from Greli who report more ritual uses show up here, as they do in Figure New1b (the ordination of only 2018 uses).
