Boxplots of the mean sheathed tail length per group (a) and per species/genus (b) and the full body length per group (c) and per species/genus (d) of the infectious larvae of gastrointestinal nematodes of sheep identified through molecular methods within this research. Dark lines represent the mean value and bars represent the standard deviation for each respective group/species/genus. Group A: short sheathed tail (Trichostrongylus spp. and Teladorsagia circumcincta), group B: medium sheathed tail (Haemonchus contortus and Cooperia curticei), group C: long sheathed tail (Chabertia ovina). Abbreviations: TC, Trichostrongylus spp.; TELA, Teladorsagia circumcincta; HAE, Haemonchus contortus; COO, Cooperia curticei; CHA, Chabertia ovina
