Appendix A (Table A1). Classification of study species into different growth forms. Note that those with a more ambiguous growth form have a secondary classification of 'intermediate' in parentheses. Analyses indicated that the inclusion of these intermediate growth forms had no impact on the qualitative outcome of our analyses.
