Habitat modification and seasonality influence avian haemosporidian parasite distributions in southeastern Brazil.

Habitat modification and seasonality influence avian haemosporidian parasite distributions in southeastern Brazil.

Habitat modification may change vertebrate and vector-borne disease distributions. However, natural forest regeneration through secondary succession may mitigate these effects. Here we tested the hypothesis that secondary succession influences the distribution of birds and their haemosporidian paras...
