Climate-driven variation in the intensity of a host-symbiont animal interaction along a broad elevation gradient. [PDF]
Gradients of environmental stress may affect biotic interactions in unpredictable ways responding to climate variation, depending on the abiotic stress tolerance of interacting partners.

Feather mites of the genus Proterothrix Gaud (Astigmata: Proctophyllodidae) from parrotbills (Passeriformes: Paradoxornithidae) in China. [PDF]
Three new species of the feather mite genus Proterothrix Gaud, 1968 (Proctophyllodidae: Pterodectinae) are reported from parrotbills (Passeriformes: Paradoxornithidae) in China. We describe Proterothrix paradoxornis n. sp.

Feather mites are ubiquitous, permanent, obligate ectosymbionts of avian hosts and are a valuable natural system for studying host-symbiont evolutionary and ecological dynamics at multiple levels of biological organization. However, a lack of a sequenced

Avian feather mites (Acari: Astigmata) of Samsun, Turkey [PDF]
Feather mites are one of the most important symbionts of birds, living on the feather, inside the quill, and in and on the skin. Approximately 2500 mite species from two superfamilies, Analgoidea and Pterolichoidea, have been described. Here, the feather mite fauna of 196 individuals of 42 bird species from the Kizilirmak delta, Turkey, was ...
