| invaded invaders: infection of invasive brown treesnakes on guam by an exotic larval cestode with a life cycle comprised of non-native hosts. | multiple host introductions to the same non-native environment have the potential to complete life cycles of parasites incidentally transported with them. our goal was to identify a recently detected parasitic flatworm in the invasive brown treesnake (boiga irregularis) on the remote pacific island of guam. we considered possible factors influencing parasite transmission, and tested for correlations between infection status and potential indicators of host fitness. we used genetic data from the ... | 2015 | 26699614 |
