The text states that "The percentage of herbivory by A. spp. was roughly 2% in treatment plots and roughly 1.5% in exclusion plots. In contrast, percentage of herbivory for M. schumanni was nearly 1% in exclusion plots and roughly 3% in control plots." This indicates that the herbivory by M. schumanni was nearly three times greater than that of A. spp. in the control plots.
