El Hornero, 2021 Screaming Cowbird (Molothrus rufoaxillaris) is highly specialized parasitizing only three species, making records of new hosts very informative. During 2017 we studied nesting success on roadsides in Argentine Pampas. Fifty-seven nests (46%) belonged to

Mixed Parentage Broods Indicate Group Spawning in the Brood Parasitic Cuckoo Catfish. [PDF]
Mol EcolABSTRACT Obligate brood parasites delegate the workload of costly parental care to their hosts. Theory predicts that release from demanding parental care increases the importance of other factors to shape mating patterns. However, behavioural observations and parentage estimates are notoriously difficult to obtain in species with covert reproductive ...

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2023, Issue 11-12, November/December 2023., 2023 Brood parasites are expected to lay only one egg per parasitized nest, as the existence of several parasitic nestlings in a brood increases competition and can lead the starvation of some of them. However, multiparasitism (laying of two or more eggs by one or more parasitic females in a single host nest) is surprisingly frequent.

Ibis, Volume 165, Issue 4, Page 1235-1250, October 2023., 2023 The nestlings of many Neotropical bird species suffer from Philornis (Diptera: Muscidae) ectoparasitism. Although nestlings are typically considered the intended targets, recent work indicates that Philornis infest adult birds more frequently than previously appreciated, yet few studies have concurrently surveyed nestlings and adults for Philornis in ...

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 51, Issue 7, July 2020., 2020 Predation and brood parasitism are common reasons for nesting failure in passerine species and the additive impact by invasive species is a major conservation concern, particularly on tropical islands. Recognising the relative contribution of the different components of nesting failure rates is important to understand co‐evolutionary interactions ...
