Careful study of this and several other cuckoos indicates, however, that despite the wide range of hosts recorded, a few host species bear most of the load of raising the young of each cuckoo species.
Cryptosporidium species infect a wide range of hosts including humans.
Protozoan parasites are among some of the most successful organisms worldwide, being able to live and multiply within a very wide range of hosts.
Common in North America and Europe, it is often an opportunistic parasite, and has a wide range of hosts among deciduous trees, although it can also infect conifers.
While the genus Coraciacarus has a wide range of hosts globally, the presence of a representative of the genus on a passerine bird was an "enigmatic phenomenon".
It can be found on a wide range of hosts, but is most commonly associated with (in order of decreasing frequency) jarrah (Eucalyptus marginata), bull banksia (Banksia grandis), marri (E. calophylla), Lasiopetalum floribundum, and Acacia saligna.
Other cochineal species feed on many of the same Opuntia, and the wide range of hosts reported for D. coccus likely is because of the difficulty in distinguishing it from other Dactylopius species.
For example, C. caviae has been detected in a wide range of hosts [34].
T. gondii has a wide range of hosts including almost all mammals as well as birds.
The high prevalence of the T3SS could contribute to the AVG's ability to interact with a wide range of hosts.
A rationale for IxAC variability may be the necessity for the tick to be able to inhibit AP activity from a wide range of hosts.
