В статье рассматриваются случаи непреднамеренной форезии имаго жесткокрылых на птицах. На 5 видах птиц семейств Columbidae, Muscicapidae, Phasianidae и Turdidae отмечено 5 видов жесткокрылых из семейств Anobiidae, Curculionidae, Chrysomelidae и Dermestidae, из которых 3 вида-открыто живущие фитофаги, а 2-инвазионные и/или криптогенные нидиколы. Связь жесткокрылых с гнездами повышает возможность переноса таких форонтов при миграциях птиц и может служить одним из проявлений (ави-вектором) процессов инвазионного расселения.
