Figures & Tables

Figure 1

Abundance (A) and species richness (B) of fish parasites in five localities. Horizonal bar = median, box = interquartile range, whiskers = non-outlier range (1.5*interquartile range), dots = outliers. Abundance outside the presented y-axis range are written as values. Centroids of the localities are indicated by numbers: 1 = Stryiska, 2 = Znesinnia, 3 = Maliushevske, 4 = Inzhenerne, 5= Plastova.

Figure 2

Non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) of parasite assemblages in fish from five sites (colors of the dots correspond to site centroids) using Bray–Curtis (A) and Jaccard (B) indices. Centroids of the localities are indicated by numbers: 1 = Stryiska, 2 = Znesinnia, 3 = Maliushevske, 4 = Inzhenerne, 5 = Plastova. NMDS stress = 0.048 (A) and 0.023 (B).
