Bird-Parasite Interactions: Ecology, Evolution and Behaviour - Oxford Ornithology Series
J. E. Loye
Parasites play a role in almost every aspect of the ecology, behaviour, and evolution of birds, and of vertebrates in general. This book looks at bird diseases and their epidemiology from an ecological and evolutionary perspective, investigating how individual growth, survival, and reproduction, as well as species abundance and distribution, are affected by parasite burdens.
