Host density predicts the probability of parasitism by avian brood parasites [PDF]

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2019
The spatial distribution of hosts can be a determining factor in the reproductive success of parasites. Highly aggregated hosts may offer more opportunities for reproduction but can have better defences than isolated hosts.

Egg Pattern Mimicry in Avian Brood Parasitism Assessed Using Local Image Descriptors and Human-Eyes

Ornithological Science, 2022
Egg pattern plays a critical role in avian brood parasitism where a brood parasite exploits a host's parental care by laying eggs in host nests relying on the host to rear the parasitic egg(s).

A Model System for Coevolution: Avian Brood Parasitism

Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution, and Systematics, 1990
Many putative examples of coevolution do not stand up to critical analysis. A rigorous definition of coevolution requires that a trait in one species has evolved in response to a trait of another species, which trait was itself evolved in response to the first species (50, 69).
