Comparative effects of mites and lice on the reproductive success of rock doves (Columba livia) |
| Date |
1995 |
| Description |
We report experimental data comparing the effects of Mesostigmatid mites and Ischnoceran lice on the reproductive performance of a single group of captive rock doves (Columba livid). Several components of host reproductive success were compared for the two groups, including number of eggs laid, hatching success, nestling growth rates, fledging success, post-fledging body mass and survival. |
