The variability in body-size spectrum of the ciliates decreased during colonization period.

The body-size distinctness measures were defined based on a trait hierarchy of body-size units.

The paired body-size distinctness measures showed a significant departure from expectation.

The paired measures may be an indicator to determine the homogeneity of body-size spectrum.
