Lankesterella and Isospora Coccidians: Differences in Host Specificity of Blood Parasites in Passerines [PDF]

Microorganisms
Parasitic protozoa such as Lankesterella and Isospora are common in avian hosts, particularly in passerines. Despite their high prevalence, the diversity of these parasites within avian populations remains poorly understood.

Smelling fit: scent marking exposes parasitic infection status in the banded mongoose [PDF]

, 2017
Preference for uninfected mates is presumed beneficial as it minimizes one’s risk of contracting an infection and infecting one’s offspring. In avian systems, visual ornaments are often used to indicate parasite burdens and facilitate mate choice ...
