Total captures, mean values and confidence levels of parasitism measures of Fringilla coelebs (European Chaffinch) and Sylvia atricapilla (Blackcap) in beech, mixed-deciduous, and spruce forest stands of the Schwäbische Alb during 2011.

Maximum values per bird species for parasite prevalence and intensity are highlighted in bold, whereas the smallest values are marked in italics.aInfected and non-infected do not necessarily equal all captures, because several individuals were captured but not screened for parasites.bConfidence Limits of mean parasite prevalence (Clopper-Pearson; 95% Confidence Level).cBootstrap Confidence Limits of mean parasite intensity (95% Confidence Level).
