Cyanocompsa cyanea (Linnaeus)
The earlier (Friedmann, 1929:112) statement to the effect that the grosbeak had been found to be parasitized in Tucumán, northwestern Argentina, may be extended by the information that it is there a frequent host choice. There were no fewer than 8 parasitized sets of eggs from that province in the J. P. Norris Collection, and another is in the Museo de La Plata.
