Total number of colonies is shown with and without A. cervicornis. White-plague prevalence calculations omit A. cervicornis data as this is not a white-plague susceptible species sensu Weil13, where BL indicates bleached, WP indicates white-plague, and DIP indicates recently dead in-place. % Combined column includes colonies with both active signs of white-plague disease and those that were identified as recently killed as a direct result of the disease.
