Ecological interactions between parasites and their hosts play a fundamental role in evolutionary processes. Selection pressures are exerted on hosts, usually resulting high levels of specificity. Such is the case ectoparasitic bat-flies, but how large-scale spatial gradients affect dynamics with bat still unknown. In present study, we investigated interaction patterns bats flies (Streblidae Nycteribiidae), both presenting peak diversity Neotropical region, along latitudinal gradient. Using...
Bats and ectoparasites, Streblidae Nycteribiidae, are good models to study ecological interactions due their specificity. Knowledge about the between these groups is heterogeneous fragmented throughout Brazilian territory, mainly in southern region – influenced by temperate climate with bat fauna presenting elements from both tropical areas. We evaluated interaction of parasites bats an Atlantic Forest area, Brazil. captured ectoparasites monthly 10 campaigns using mist nets. To describe...
Lasiurus egregius (Peters, 1870) is an insectivorous bat species known from Central and South America. This species has few confirmed records throughout its distribution. Here we report the first record of L. northern coast Paraná state, southern Brazil. We captured a female individual using ultrathin mist-net installed over river knee, at Salto Morato Natural Reserve, municipality Guaraqueçaba. fourteenth locality with occurrence ,...
