Fig. 6. a) compositional heterogeneity and b) relative abundance of parasite assemblages measured as the average distance of individuals to group centroids as a function of the mean group length of the six different size classes. Rate of change of c) compositional heterogeneity and d) relative abundance of parasite assemblages measured as pairwise mean differences between group centroids and the average distances in groups mean length. Mean distances to group centroids and distances between group centroids are expressed as a percentage of the maximum value for the dissimilarity index used.
