Replication Data for Fig 5.2, WTPDs, Flea counts vs colony rank, 13 Oct 2025

FILE DESCRIPTION Keywords: burrow-entrance, colony rank, white-tailed prairie dog File name = Fig 5.2, Right side, WTPDs, fleas vs colony rank, 13 Oct 2025 These data are for WTPDs only. BTPD data are in another EXCEL file called Fig 5.2, BTPDs, Fleas vs colony rank These WTPD summary data for fleas per burrow-entrance used for Figure 5.2 (which also shows sample sizes) are in Hoogland 2026 (book). This file ready for longterm storage on 25 January 2025. Most (all?) of the raw data for these summaries are EXCEL = BGUW, Final flea and body masses, 14 Jan 2025. Numbers shown are Means + 1 Standard Error (SEM). Small standard errors are shown as 0.1. Note: These data are summaries only. As noted above, most (all?) of the raw data are in EXCEL file = BGUW, Final flea and body masses, 14 Jan 2025. BTPDs = black-tailed prairie dogs. WTPDs = white-tailed prairie dogs Individuals at WTPD colonies were not marked, so I could accurately determine colony ranks (relative colony sizes) but not exact colony sizes These WTPD summary data for fleas per burrow entrance used for Figure 5.2 (which also shows sample sizes) in Hoogland 2026. This file ready for longterm storage on 07 July 2025. Most (all?) of the raw data for these summaries are from EXCEL file = BGUW, Final flea and body masses, 14 Jan 2025. Numbers in Column at far left are ward ranks--left of Column-A--(10). WTPDs, July 1975 fleas WTPDs, Sept 1975 fleas from smallest (1) to largest BTPDs = black-tailed prairie dogs. WTPDs = white-tailed prairie dogs Data shown here are means plus one standard error (SEM). Note: these data are SUMMARIES ONLY. Most of the raw data are in EXCEL file = BGUW, Final flea and body masses, 14 Jan 2025. Note: Flea counts in this fie are from TWO time-periods: July 1975 and Sept 1975 Note: These flea counts are from WTPD burrow-entrances, not from WTPD individuals File name = Fig 5.2, Right side, WTPDs, fleas vs colony rank, 13 Oct 2025
