Host-Parasite Relationship of Ticks (Acari: Ixodidae and Argasidae) and Feral Pigs (Sus scrofa) in the Nhecolândia Region of the Pantanal Wetlands in Mato Grosso do Sul

Figure 1

Sample scores of the first two discriminant axes for tick infracommunities of Sus scrofa (feral pigs) from the southern Pantanal wetlands in the State of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. The numbers represent seasons: (1) wet season and (2) dry season, whereas the circles around the group represent the 95.7% tolerance region (e.g., 95.7% of the observations in a group are expected to lie inside the respective circle).
