Avian blood parasites in the National Natural Park Chingaza: High Andes of Colombia
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Birds from the high Andes in the National Natural Park Chingaza, Colombia, were surveyed for blood parasites in April 2002 and March 2003. Of 136 birds examined, representing 40 species of 14 families, 38 were infected with blood parasites. Parasites of the genera Leucocytozoon (21.3% prevalence), Plasmodium (8.1%), Hepatozoon (2.9%), Microfilariae (2.9%) and Haemoproteus (1.5%) were recorded. Twenty five avian species in this survey were examined for blood parasites for the first time and 49 new parasite-host associations were identified. The most striking observation of this study was the high prevalence of Leucocytozoon spp. In the Neotropics, the prevalence of Leucocytozoon spp. has not been reported to be greater than 0.2% and is closely associated with the presence of migrant birds. Its presence in native avian host suggests a local transmission cycle in the zone.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.
How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
