Congratulations to Kate for recently publishing two more papers from her PhD work at Clemson University. Both papers deal with ecological/environmental parasitology of gut helminths of double-crested cormorants of the southeast USA, showing how various aspects of host biology and ecology influence their parasite infracommunities, likely via changes in the hosts’ foraging ecology. One paper is in Ecological Indicators: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1470160X16301121. The other is in Journal of Helminthology: https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/journal-of-helminthology/article/the-influence-of-geographical-location-host-maturity-and-sex-on-intestinal-helminth-communities-of-the-double-crested-cormorant-phalacrocorax-auritus-from-the-eastern-united-states/0A3BB4D442BD2D9C0F32F4358D18D37C.
