Blood parasites of the genera\n                      <jats:italic>Plasmodium<\/jats:italic>\n                      and\n                      <jats:italic>Haemoproteus<\/jats:italic>\n                      are a diverse group of vector-borne protozoan parasites that affect bird populations globally. Despite their widespread distribution and exceptional diversity, factors underlying haemosporidian infection risk in wild bird communities remain poorly understood. While some studies have examined variation in avian haemosporidian risk, researchers have primarily focused on host ecological traits without considering host phylogenetic relationships. In this study, we employ a phylogenetically informed approach to examine the association between host ecological traits and haemosporidian infection risk in endemic bird communities in the Western Ghats Sky Islands.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      We used parasite sequence data based on partial mitochondrial cytochrome\n                      <jats:italic>b<\/jats:italic>\n                      gene, that was amplified from genomic DNA extracted from 1177 birds (28 species) across the Western Ghats to assess infection of birds with haemosporidian parasites. We employed a Bayesian phylogenetic mixed effect modelling approach to test whether haemosporidian infection risk was affected by seven species-specific and four individual-level ecological predictors. We also examined the effect of host phylogenetic relationships on the observed patterns of variation in haemosporidian infection risk by estimating phylogenetic signal.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Our study shows that host ecological traits and host phylogeny differentially influence infection risk by\n                      <jats:italic>Plasmodium<\/jats:italic>\n                      (generalist parasite) and\n                      <jats:italic>Haemoproteus<\/jats:italic>\n                      (specialist parasite).
