Parasites of seabirds: A survey of effects and ecological implications
Parasites are ubiquitous in the environment, and can cause negative effects in their host
species. Importantly, seabirds can be long-lived and cross multiple continents within a single …

Parasite prevalence corresponds to host life history in a diverse assemblage of Afrotropical birds and haemosporidian parasites
Avian host life history traits have been hypothesized to predict rates of infection by
haemosporidian parasites. Using molecular techniques, we tested this hypothesis for …

Intensity of haemosporidian infection of parids positively correlates with proximity to water bodies, but negatively with host survival
In birds, haemosporidian parasites have been found to have direct pathogenic effects on the
host with important consequences for their fitness. However, less is known about distribution …
