- Observation Pattern scales and intensities varied considerably between sites.
- Observation Every sampled site had contagion at two or more scales.
- Observation No sampled site showed uniform distribution.
- Mechanism The two main spatial scales were attributed to gregariousness and soil patchiness or gilgai relief.
- Association The drought-associated density reduction accompanied lower pattern intensity.
- Observation The original spatial scales persisted in the residual population.
