Deciphering serology to understand the ecology of infectious diseases in wildlife
The ecology of infectious disease in wildlife has become a pivotal theme in animal and
public health. Studies of infectious disease ecology rely on robust surveillance of pathogens …

Site occupancy models in the analysis of environmental DNA presence/absence surveys: a case study of an emerging amphibian pathogen
The use of environmental DNA (eDNA) to detect species in aquatic environments such as
ponds and streams is a powerful new technique with many benefits. However, species …

Statistical approaches to account for false‐positive errors in environmental DNA samples
Environmental DNA (eDNA) sampling is prone to both false‐positive and false‐negative
errors. We review statistical methods to account for such errors in the analysis of eDNA data …

Dealing with false‐positive and false‐negative errors about species occurrence at multiple levels
Accurate knowledge of species occurrence is fundamental to a wide variety of ecological,
evolutionary and conservation applications. Assessing the presence or absence of species …

Modeling false positive detections in species occurrence data under different study designs
The occurrence of false positive detections in presence–absence data, even when they
occur infrequently, can lead to severe bias when estimating species occupancy patterns …

Host–multiparasite interactions in amphibians: a review
Parasites, including viruses, bacteria, fungi, protists, helminths, and arthropods, are
ubiquitous in the animal kingdom. Consequently, hosts are frequently infected with more …

[HTML][HTML] Complementary roles of wild boar and red deer to animal tuberculosis maintenance in multi-host communities
The contribution of wildlife species to pathogen maintenance in multi-host communities has
seldom been quantified. To assess the relative contribution of the main wildlife hosts of …

Beak and feather disease virus in wild and captive parrots: an analysis of geographic and taxonomic distribution and methodological trends
Psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD) has emerged in recent years as a major threat
to wild parrot populations and is an increasing concern to aviculturists and managers of …

Establishment of exotic parasites: the origins and characteristics of an avian malaria community in an isolated island avifauna
Abstract Knowledge of the processes favouring the establishment of exotic parasites is poor.
Herein, we test the characteristics of successful exotic parasites that have co‐established in …
