Data_Sheet_1_Testing the Interspecific Function of Female Common Cuckoo “Bubbling” Call.CSV

open access: yes, 2021
Female common cuckoo (Cuculus canorous) predator-like “bubbling” calls distract host parental attention and reduce the egg rejection rate. Such “bubbling” calls are also frequently used to attract males and deter territorial rivals in intraspecies ...

Potential cuckoo hosts have similar egg rejection rates to parasitized host species

open access: yesAvian Research, 2020
Background Thrush species are rarely parasitized by cuckoos, but many have a strong egg recognition ability. To date, there is a limited understanding of the relationship between host egg rejection and cuckoo parasitism rate.

How strong are eggs of the common cuckoo Cuculus canorus? [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Vertebrate Biology, 2020
The common cuckoo Cuculus canorus is an obligate brood parasite that lays its eggs in the nests of small passerines. It has long been hypothesized that cuckoo eggs should be structurally stronger than host eggs or those of non-parasitic cuckoos to reduce chances of breakage during laying, to prevent accidental damage during incubation and/or to hinder ...

Common cuckoos (Cuculus canorus) affect the bacterial diversity of the eggshells of their great reed warbler (Acrocephalus arundinaceus) hosts. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
The common cuckoo (Cuculus canorus) is an avian brood parasite, laying its eggs in the nests of other bird species, where these hosts incubate the parasitic eggs, feed and rear the nestlings.

Linking individual attributes and host specialization in brood parasitic cuckoos

open access: yesAvian Research, 2022
Generalist avian brood parasites vary considerably in their degree of host specialization (e.g., number of hosts); some parasitize the nests of just a few host species, whereas others exploit more than 100 species.

A review of the cues used for rejecting foreign eggs from the nest by the Eurasian blackbird (Turdus merula)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Avian brood parasitism is reproductively costly for hosts and selects for cognitive features enabling anti‐parasitic resistance at multiple stages of the host's breeding cycle.

Why cuckoos remove host eggs: Biting eggs facilitates faster parasitic egg‐laying

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Brood parasitism by cuckoos relies on manipulating hosts to raise their offspring and has evolved stunning adaptations to aid in their deception. The fact that cuckoos usually but not always, remove one or two host eggs while laying their eggs has been a
