Sampling details of the 48 bird species included in this study (part one).

For each bird species, the table shows the number of individuals screened and the number of infections scored. Parasite richness is given both as a raw value for all species, and also as R25 (± S.E.) for 15 species with more than 25 scored infections. The percentage of exclusive parasite lineages is only calculated for widely sampled bird species (with more than 25 scored infections). The blackcap entries have been boldfaced.
