Table 1.
The number of host individuals sampled for parasite species at each of the six habitats and three habitat types (grassland, larrea and woodland) for each of host species. One host species, Peromyscus difficilis, had no recorded non-fecal parasites, and was therefore omitted from the main text analyses. Two of the sites (Five Points and Rio Salado) contain both grassland and larrea habitat types.
