Experimentally Constrained Virulence is Costly for Common Cuckoo Chicks

Ethology, 2008
AbstractChicks of some avian brood parasites show high virulence by eliminating all host progeny in the nest whereas others develop in the presence of host nestmates. Common cuckoo (Cuculus canorus) chicks are typically highly virulent parasites as they attempt to evict all host eggs and chicks soon after hatching.

Adaptations of meadow pipits to parasitism by the common cuckoo

Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 1989
The meadow pipit Anthus pratensis is one of the most frequent hosts in Europe parasitized by the common cuckoo Cuculus canorus. The cuckoo normally removes one or more of the host eggs and replaces them with one of its own. The aim of the present study, which was conducted in an upland area of Central Norway, was to test the following question ...

Egg Rejection and Brain Size among Potential Hosts of the Common Cuckoo

Ethology, 2007
AbstractInterspecific brood parasitism by the common cuckoo (Cuculus canorus) lowers host fitness, and has selected for discrimination and rejection of parasitic eggs in their commonly parasitized hosts. Cognitive demands needed to discriminate and reject cuckoo eggs may have led to augmentation of relative brain size among passerine hosts parasitized ...

Host-Race Formation in the Common Cuckoo

Science, 1998
The exploitation of a new host by a parasite may result in host-race formation or speciation. A brood parasitic bird, the common cuckoo, is divided into host races, each characterized by egg mimicry of different host species. Microsatellite DNA markers were used to examine cuckoo mating patterns and host usage in an area where a new host has been ...

Color Morph Variation in Two Brood Parasites: Common Cuckoo and Lesser Cuckoo

Ornithological Science, 2016
Abstract Variation in plumage color in the family Cuculidae has become an interesting subject for model systems in the study of avian color evolution. It is notable that in certain parasitic species, such as the Common Cuckoo Cuculus canorus and Lesser Cuckoo C.
