Helminth Community Dynamics in Populations of Blue-Winged Teal (Anas discors) Using Two Distinct Migratory Corridors

Table 5

Percent Similarity (PS) and Coefficient of Community (CC) values for helminth communities of blue-winged teal (Anas discors) by host migratory corridor, host age, host sex, and age and sex within corridors.

Level of comparison	PS^a	CC^a
Corridor	59.3	86.5
Age	70.0	85.3
Sex	83.1	92.1
East (Age)	77.0	81.3
East (Sex)	76.0	86.2
West (Age)	59.5	90.0
West (Sex)	82.5	89.6

^aPercent Similarity (PS) and Coefficient of Community (CC) values range from 0 (completely dissimilar) to 100 (completely similar).
