Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2025.Abstract Parasite species frequently co‐occur more or less than expected by chance. These nonrandom co‐occurrence patterns can be driven by pre‐ or postinfection priority effects: parasites are more or less likely to attempt infection in a host already infected by another parasite species or may have higher or lower establishment and survival in hosts ...

Host tolerance and resistance to parasitic nest flies differs between two wild bird species
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 9, Issue 21, Page 12144-12155, November 2019., 2019 Host defenses to parasitic nest flies differ between tree swallows and eastern bluebirds. Both host species are tolerant to their respective parasite loads but swallows are more resistance to the parasites, which is mediated by the parasite‐binding antibody response in nestlings.

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 409-418, May 2024.Introduced fly dominance: The Galapagos necrobiome is dominated by introduced carrion flies, with Peckia chrysostoma as the most abundant species, outcompeting native and endemic species. Endemic fly vulnerability: Endemic and native carrion flies, like Sarothromyiops dasycnemis, face competition and potential displacement by introduced species ...

Gizzard contents of the Smooth-billed Ani Crotophaga ani in Santa Cruz, Galapagos Islands, Ecuador [PDF]
, 2016 The Smooth-billed Ani Crotophaga ani was introduced to the Galapagos archipelago in the 1960s, since when its population has grown significantly. We studied the dietary items in the gizzards of 56 anis sampled on the island of Santa Cruz. We confirmed that

Host use by Philornis sp. in a passerine community in central Argentina
Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2012 We studied host use by parasitic botflies (Philornis sp.) in a passerine community in central Argentina and analyzed characteristics of nests and hosts associated with botfly parasitism.
