Resumen

El parasitismo de cría en aves del género Molothrus es una estrategia de reproducción en la que estas aves ovopositan los huevos en los nidos de otras especies, aprovechándose de los esfuerzos parentales de las aves hospedadoras para criar a sus polluelos. En lugar de invertir tiempo y energía en la construcción de nidos y el cuidado directo de sus polluelos, las aves del género Molothrus delegan estas responsabilidades a otras especies, lo que les permite canalizar sus recursos hacia la producción de más huevos e incrementar la victoria reproductiva. La presente revisión bibliográfica fue realizada mediante la búsqueda de información en revista científicas mexicanas e internacionales y páginas web especializadas en el tema. Con el objetivo de realizar un abordaje del parasitismo de nido que realiza el género Molothrus a través de las interacciones biológicas y el establecimiento de un plan de supervivencia que se ha transformado en un comportamiento común. La existencia de aves que parasitan los nidos de otras tiene varias aplicaciones e implicaciones importantes en los campos de la biología, la ecología y la conservación, por lo que, la implementación de estrategias que favorezcan el manejo y control poblacional de aves que practican el parasitismo de nido, como en el caso del género Molothrus spp, es crucial para preservar las especies que son afectadas por esta conducta.
