Abstract:We studied the occurrence of intestinal parasites in adults and nestlings of Acrocephalus paludicola, A. schoenobaenus, A. palustris, A. scirpaceus and A. arundinaceus. In all studied species the most common taxa were Coccidia and Ascaridia, and in some species also Ornithostrongylus and other Nematoda. In A. arundinaceus parasitized males were significantly heavier than nonparasitized ones, whereas in females the opposite was found. Also parasite-free male A. schoenobaenus and A. scirpaceus and female A. paludicola tended to be lighter compared to parasitized ones, but the difference was not significant. Infected A. scirpaceus females had significantly larger fat deposit that noninfected ones. Parasite prevalence varied also significantly between the promiscuous A. paludicola and the related monogamous species.
