Host-feeding patterns. Group indicates the dataset for the respective analysis. Values of the estimated C-score are the values calculated from the data, and Mean ± Variance are the results from the simulations. The values of P < exp and P > exp indicate the probability that the C-score value is significantly smaller (indicating aggregated pattern) or larger (segregated pattern) than that expected by random, with a P-value < 0.05 indicating statistical significance. When none of the P-values is below the threshold of 0.05 the pattern is random. Column “pattern” indicates the interpretation of the pattern
