Patterns of host-parasite associations in tropical lice and their passerine hosts in Cameroon. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2020 Associations of lice and their avian hosts in the tropical rainforests of Cameroon are predominantly shaped by host switching. Despite the general incongruence between parasite and host phylogenies, the significant correlation between host and parasite phylogenetic distances suggests the prevalence of host switching to closely related hosts.
