| reinfestation of streblidae ectoparasites (diptera) in carollia perspicillata (linnaeus, 1758) (chiroptera). | the mark-recapture method allows analysis on the variation in the abundance of bat ectoparasites at consecutive captures. the objectives of this study were to compare the pattern of streblidae parasitism between capture and recapture of c. perspicillata; ascertain whether the abundance of streblidae varied with time after removal of ectoparasites at capture and analyze whether the intensity of parasitism remained the same in each individual at capture and recapture. using bats netted in the stat ... | 2011 | 22166388 |
