Parasite prevalence along the elevational gradient with increments of 0°C (•), 1°C (○), 2°C (▴) and 4°C (Δ), using the equation of the linear regression between overall parasite prevalence and mean annual temperature (temperature –140.62/0.1047 = parasite prevalence). Extrapolations indicated that there will be an increase of about 10% in the prevalence of parasites for each 1°C of increment in temperature.
