Not extinct but thriving—The rediscovery of the horseshoe bat fly Phthiridium biarticulatum (Diptera: Nycteribiidae) in the United Kingdom

Bat flies such as Phthiridium biarticulatum Hermann are haematophagous ectoparasites of bats. Phthiridium biarticulatum was last recorded in the United Kingdom in 1959 and was considered regionally extinct. We report the presence of P. biarticulatum on Lesser Horseshoe Bats Rhinolophus hipposideros (Bechstein) across South West England.

Goals Shape Dynamics of Attention and Selection for Value‐Based Decision‐Making

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
