Table 1 Cox regression model analyzing adult longevity as a function of larval temperature and sex (A), and larval relative humidity and sex (B). ß is the regression coefficient of the overall survival function for variables, while s.e. is the standard error of the regression coefficient. Odds indicates the odds ratio of survival for variable (exp(b)) relative to the control factor as the reference category. The same model was calculated with T24 and T28 as reference categories to obtain all relative odds ratios. For Sex, females were the reference category. Wald is the statistical test for the variable, and p indicates the significant level for Wald statistic. The sample size for (A) are as follows: T20—55 females and 63 males; T24—51 females and 66 males; T28—74 females and 44 males. The sample size for (B) are as follows: H85—51 females and 66 males; H70—68 females and 52 males; H55—57 females and 56 males
