| bat flies (diptera: streblidae, nycteribiidae) parasitic on bats (mammalia: chiroptera) at parque estadual da cantareira, são paulo, brazil: parasitism rates and host-parasite associations. | a total of 443 bat flies belonging to the families nycteribiidae and strelidae, were collected on 22 species of bats (molossidae, phyllostomidae, and vespertilionidae) from parque estadual da cantareira (são paulo, brazil), between january, 2000 and january, 2001. eighteen new occurrences of bat flies were recorded on anoura geoffroyi (anastrebla caudiferae), glossophaga soricina (a. caudiferae), sturnira lilium (trichobius phyllostomae, t. furmani, and paraeuctenodes similis), artibeus lituratu ... | 2005 | 15867959 |
| ectoparasites (insecta and acari) associated with bats in southeastern brazil. | the result of a survey of ectoparasites infesting bats in southeastern brazil is presented. of 181 bats belonging to 16 species, 10 (34.1%) were infested by streblid flies (streblidae), nine (33.5%) by spinturnicid mites (spinturnicidae), and five (8.3%) by macronyssid mites (macronyssidae). one species of the families trombiculidae and myobiidae was found. a total of 195 streblids, 178 spinturnicids, and 76 macronyssids was collected. paratrichobius longicrus was the most abundant bat fly speci ... | 2011 | 21845932 |
| ectoparasitic flies (diptera, streblidae) of bats (chiroptera, phyllostomidae) in an atlantic forest area, southeastern brazil. | we studied infestation rates and parasite-host associations between streblid flies and phyllostomid bats in an atlantic forest area of rio de janeiro state, southeastern brazil. we captured 301 individuals from seven phyllostomidae bat species. out of that total, 69 bats had been parasitised by nine streblidae species; the most frequent species were trichobius joblingi and trichobius tiptoni. the species paraeuctenodes longipes, associated with anoura geoffroyi, was the most frequent species. th ... | 2013 | 24789402 |
| streblidae (diptera) of phyllostomid bats from minas gerais, brazil. | eight streblid species were collected from eight phyllostomid bat species, from april to november 1997, at or near the reserve "parque estadual do rio doce", minas gerais, southeastern brazil. in total, 48 specimens of streblid were removed from 57 phyllostomid bats. most of batflies species were associated with a single species of the host, and only paratrichobius longicrus (miranda ribeiro) and trichobius joblingi wenzel were recorded on three bat species. trichobius lonchophyllae wenzel repre ... | 2002 | 12048576 |
