infestation and seasonal activity of ixodes vespertilionis koch, 1844 (acari: ixodidae) on the maghreb mouse-eared bat, myotis punicus felten, 1977, in northeastern algeria.	infestation of ixodes vespertilionis koch, 1844 on myotis punicus felten, 1977 from two sites (trios tunnel and sidi trad cave) in northeastern algeria was studied. an overall infestation of 41.4% for all stages was found among bats collected from both sites. by stage, a total of eight females, 70 nymphs, and 107 larvae were recovered from both populations. the number of females recovered per bat at sidi trad ranged from 0-1, for nymphs 0-2, and for larvae 0-2. while no female ticks were collect ...	2016	27232132
mites as biological tags of their hosts.	movements and spatial distribution of host populations are expected to shape the genetic structure of their parasite populations. comparing the genetic patterns of both interacting species may improve our understanding of their evolutionary history. moreover, genetic analyses of parasites with horizontal transmission may serve as indicators of historical events or current demographic processes that are not apparent in the genetic signature of their hosts. here, we compared mitochondrial variatio ...	2010	20546134
