Hiding in plain sight: experimental evidence for birds as selective agents for host mimicry in mistletoes [PDF]
, 2020 Many Australian mistletoe species are cryptic, closely resembling their host foliage and overall appearance. Seed-dispersing birds have been proposed as a selective agent for host resemblance, with cryptic mistletoes only located by thoroughly searching
