Figure 4

Parasite load separated for sex and age in each sampling site. For each sampling site (Monggis, Poring) the a) mean number of helminth morphotypes (parasite species richness) and b) infection intensity (nematode eggs per gram faeces, EPG) are shown. Error bars indicate standard deviation. Black numbers indicate sample size for each group (total N = 46). Note that sex could not be determined in some cases due to immaturity of individuals.
