Range expansion of the screaming cowbird (Molothrus rufoaxillaris) mediated by a new brood parasite-host interaction in central Chile

open access: yesGayana, 2023
The Screaming Cowbird (Molothrus rufoaxillaris) is a brood-parasite specialized in parasitizing the Grayish Baywing (Agelaioides badius). Recently, it started to parasite a new host, the Austral Blackbird (Curaeus curaeus), which has driven the ...

Innate development of acoustic signals for host parent–offspring recognition in the brood‐parasitic Screaming CowbirdMolothrus rufoaxillaris

open access: yesIbis, 2018
Young birds communicate their need to parents through complex begging displays that include visual and acoustic cues. Nestlings of interspecific brood parasites must ‘tune’ into these communication channels to secure parental care from their hosts. Various studies show that parasitic nestlings can effectively manipulate host parental behaviour through ...

Host-parasite coevolution beyond the nestling stage? Mimicry of host fledglings by the specialist screaming cowbird. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Biol Sci, 2012
textbook examples of host-parasite coevolution. By contrast, reciprocal adaptations and counteradaptations beyond the egg stage in brood parasites and their hosts have received less attention.

Primer registro de parasitismo del federal (Amblyramphus holosericeus) por parte del especialista Tordo pico corto (Molothrus rufoaxillaris) [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

A comparative study of the structural and mechanical properties of avian eggshells among hosts of obligate brood parasitic cowbirds (genus Molothrus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Obligate avian brood parasites depend on hosts for parental care, which in turn suffer fitness losses as a result of parasitism. Mechanisms by which brood parasitic cowbirds (Molothrus spp.) reduce host breeding success include the puncture (M ...

Observações sobre o parasitismo de Molothrus rufoaxillaris sobre Gnorimopsar chopi e outros aspectos de sua história natural no norte de Minas Gerais: por que Agelaioides fringillarius não é parasitado? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
O chopim–picumã (Molothrus rufoaxillaris) é, dentre os parasitas de ninhadas, a espécie maisespecializada, possuindo apenas três hospedeiros: o asa-de-telha (Agelaioides badius), o pássaro-preto(Gnorimopsar chopi) e o dragão (Pseudoleistes virescens). Em
