Egg count, number of L3 and read relative frequencies of gastrointestinal nematodes at taxa level. Each stacked bar chart represents the species composition of 149 roe deer samples within which each taxon is defined by one color. The numbers of L3 and fecal egg counts are displayed above each bar chart. The data are split based on site location (Chizé or Trois Fontaines), age (young or adult roe deer) and sex (F: females and M: males). In addition, samples from Chizé are subdivided according to the three different sectors: sector 1: “rich coppices;” sector 2: “medium coppices;” sector 3: “poor beech stand”
