Map of mean abundance of the parasite species infecting the Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus (L.) from 29 farms in Yucatán, Southern México. The radius of each pie chart represents the total number of individual parasites of all species found in a Nile tilapia farm. Each slice corresponds to a parasite species. The bigger the slice, the higher the mean abundance of each parasite species. The parasites are represented by a number as follows: 1, Cichlidogyrus sclerosus; 2, Cichlidogyrus tilapiae; 3, Cichlidogyrus dossoui; 4, Gyrodactylus cichlidarum; 5, Trichodina sp.; 6, other parasites (Cichlidogyrus longicornis, Cichlidogyrus quaestio, Cichlidogyrus sp., Cichlidogyrus halli, Vorticella sp., Enterogyrus malmbergi). ♦= Mérida City
