Abstract
⺠We explored whether great reed warbler social status affects antiparasitic defence. ⺠Monogamous nests were more male-protected than primary and secondary nests. ⺠Females of polygynous males did not compensate for lower male aggression. âºÂ Nests of different status did not differ in susceptibility to brood parasitism. ⺠Shared male assistance with antiparasitic nest defence does not represent a cost.
