Effects of the parasite, Ophryocystis elektroscirrha, on wing characteristics important for migration in the monarch butterfly
There is mounting evidence that the longterm declines of overwintering monarchs in Mexico are exacerbated by losses during the fall migratory journey. Infection with the protozoan, Ophryocystis elektroscirrha (OE), is known to negatively impact migration success. Here we examine how infections affec...
