%X Nested species subset patterns consist in a hierarchical structure of species composition in related assemblages, with the species found in depauperate assemblages representing non-random subsets of progressively richer ones. This pattern has been found at the infracommunity level in about a third of fish ectoparasites, anti-nestedness, which corresponds to situations in which parasite species are always absent from infracommunities richer than the most depauperate one in which they occur. We show that this pattern is exactly as common as nestedness, and that anti-nested assemblages are characterised by significantly lower prevalence and mean intensities of parasites than nested assemblages. In addition, we found a positive relationship between the prevalence and the mean intensity of parasites across the different assemblages. We propose a link between the nestedness/anti-nestedness continuum and the prevalence-intensity relationship that may involve colonisation-extinction processes. The results presented here suggest that, although nestedness may not be common in parasite communities, other departures from random species assembly are possible, and that some form of structure may be present in many communities. The continuum between nestedness and anti-nestedness also has implications for recent models of species coexistence in communities. (Résumé d'auteur)
