Male hosts drive infracommunity structure of ectoparasites
Oecologia, 2011 We studied the co-occurrence of flea species in infracommunities of 16 rodents from four regions (South Africa, Tanzania, central Europe and western Siberia) using null models, and predicted that flea co-occurrences will be expressed more strongly in male than in female hosts.

Evidence for interspecific interactions in the ectoparasite infracommunity of a wild mammal [PDF]
Parasites and Vectors, 2016 Co-infection with multiple parasite species is commonly observed in nature and interspecific interactions are likely to occur in parasite infracommunities. Such interactions may affect the distribution of parasites among hosts but also the response of infracommunities to perturbations.

Helminth infracommunity in a maned wolf, Chrysocyon brachyurus, from the humid Chaco, Argentina
Parasitology International, 2021 Parasitism is an important factor in conservation worldwide, especially for endangered species, as it can affect host populations by reducing growth rates, fecundity and affecting nutritional status. The maned wolf Chrysocyon brachyurus, a near-threatened species, is distributed across different habitats from the south Amazonian forest in Brazil to ...

Richness, nestedness, and randomness in parasite infracommunity structure
Oecologia, 1996Within a host population, parasite infracommunities vary in both richness and species composition. If interspecific interactions among parasites are important in shaping infracommunities, the structure of these assemblages is expected to differ from the one predicted by null models, i.e. from the one that would result from chance alone. Using data from

Monogenean body size, but not reproduction, increases with infracommunity density
International Journal for Parasitology, 2022Body size reveals a plethora of life-history, ecological, and evolutionary information about a species. It plays a critical role in success or failure during competitive, reproductive, or predator-prey interactions. Typically, there is a negative relationship between body size and population density in natural populations and communities.

The helminth infracommunities in three species of herons (Aves: Ardeidae) from Ukraine
Parasitology International, 2021This survey analysed the helminth communities associated with three Ukrainian heron species (Ardea cinerea, Ardea purpurea, Nycticorax nycticorax) collected throughout 1947-2019. The sample analysed included 128 specimens, and 55 helminth species were identified.
