Bat flies (Diptera: Nycteribiidae and Streblidae) infesting cave-dwelling bats in Gabon: diversity, dynamics and potential role in transmission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Evidence of haemosporidian infections in bats and bat flies has motivated a growing interest in characterizing their transmission cycles.

Digital surveillance of animals and nature recovery

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Digital surveillance technologies (DSTs) are widely applied in nature recovery for their potential to generate novel data on species and ecosystems through digital tracking, automation (e.g. from hazardous locations) and from newly recruited citizen scientists.

Table_1_Focus on Hyperparasites: Biotic and Abiotic Traits Affecting the Prevalence of Parasitic Microfungi on Bat Ectoparasites.XLSX

open access: yes, 2022
The tritrophic association of bats, bat flies, and Laboulbeniales microfungi is a remarkably understudied system that may reveal patterns applicable to community ecology theory of (hyper)parasites.

Bat Flies (Diptera: Hippoboscoidea) Associated with Fruit Bats (Pteropodidae) on Cebu Island, Philippines

open access: yes, 2023
The bat fly fauna of Cebu Island is poorly studied as evidenced by relatively few published records. This paper presents records of bat flies (Diptera: Hippoboscoidea) associated with fruit bats on Cebu Island, Philippines with additional island records.

Dietary Flavonoid Hyperoside Ameliorates High‐Fat Diet‐Induced Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus by Enhancing Brown Adipose Tissue Thermogenesis, White Adipose Tissue Browning, and Gut Microbiota Remodeling

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Hyperoside ameliorates metabolic dysfunction in high‐fat diet‐induced type 2 diabetic mice, accompanied by enhanced brown adipose tissue thermogenic activity, inguinal white adipose tissue browning‐related changes, reduced M1 macrophage polarization, and gut microbiota remodeling.

Reliability of Manual Counting for Thermal Census of Bats Within Human‐Made Structures

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Bats have a critical role in ecosystems worldwide, but monitoring their populations remains challenging, particularly in complex roosts within human‐made structures. We examined the reliability of manual bat counts from thermal infrared video, a method widely used to estimate populations and evaluate computer vision censusing approaches.

Evolutionary history of Indian Ocean nycteribiid bat flies mirroring the ecology of their hosts.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Bats and their parasites are increasingly investigated for their role in maintenance and transmission of potentially emerging pathogens. The islands of the western Indian Ocean hold nearly 50 bat species, mostly endemic and taxonomically well studied ...

National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...
