Fig. 2 in Microclimate and host body condition influence mite population growth in a wild bird-ectoparasite system

Description

Fig. 2. Distribution of nest mite population sizes estimated when nests were placed in a Berlese funnel after nestlings had fledged. All nests began the experiment with the same population size (100 live mites), mimicking identical transmission, but ending population sizes 30–35 days later were highly variable. This suggests that factors of the nest environment or hosts may be playing an important role in mite population growth.
