Non-metric multidimensional scaling ordination plot based on Jaccard similarities in mite species occurrence (data non-transformed, stress = 0.136) for (a) feather mite infracommunities of five procellariiform genera and (b) feather mite infracommunities of these five host genera presented as pooled data from the five sampled regions. Abbreviations of the geographical regions are: Western Mediterranean—WM, Eastern Mediterranean—EM, Northern NE Atlantic—NNEA, Central NE Atlantic—CNEA and Southern NE Atlantic—SNEA.
