Why do so many parasitic worms have complex life-cycles? A complex life-cycle has at least two hypothesized costs: (i) worms with longer life-cycles, i.e. more successive hosts, must be generalists at the species level, which might reduce lifetime su

Parasitic worms (i.e., helminths) commonly infect multiple hosts in succession. With every transmission step, they risk not infecting the next host and thus dying before reproducing. Given this risk, what are the benefits of complex life cycles? Usin

Parasitic worms (helminths) with complex life cycles divide growth and development between successive hosts. Using data from 597 species of acanthocephalans, cestodes, and nematodes with two‐host life cycles, we found that helminths with larger int

Parasitic worms with complex life cycles have several developmental stages, with each stage creating opportunities to infect additional host species. Using a data set for 973 species of trophically transmitted acanthocephalans, cestodes, and nematode

Grazing mammals, ungulates, pose two evolutionary puzzles as helminth hosts. First, why do some helminths infect intermediate hosts prior to infecting ungulates, given that grazers could directly consume propagules on vegetation? Second, ungulates ar

Links between parasites and food webs are evolutionarily ancient but dynamic: life history theory provides insights into helminth complex life cycle origins. Most adult helminths benefit by sexual reproduction in vertebrates, often high up food chain

When parasites invade paired structures of their host non-randomly, the resulting asymmetry may have both pathological and ecological significance. To facilitate the detection and visualisation of asymmetric infections we have developed a free softwa

Switching from one host to the next is a critical life-history transition in parasites with complex life cycles. Growth and mortality rates are thought to influence the optimal time and size at transmission, but these rates are difficult to measure i

In the complex life cycles of helminths, life in intermediate hosts poses special problems not covered by standard life history strategy theory. While under selection to reduce mortality and to increase growth, there is the additional problem of tran
