General additive mixed model of Himasthla elongata cercarial acute infection success (A) and generalized linear mixed model of cercarial net infectivity (B) after 24 h of exposure to Mytilus edulis s.l. under different temperatures with gaussian (A) and zero-inflated negative binomial (B) distributions. The blue dot represents the optimal temperature [21.5 °C (A) and 19.8 °C (B)] for cercariae infectivity [45% infectivity (A) and 1933 infective cercariae from surviving snails (B)].
