Rangifer, 1990 Three hypotheses of life cycle have been tested. A direct transmission to reindeer hosts with monoxenous development is the most probable. Abundant parasites are generally thought to have much impact on host populations.

Revista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2002 The patterns of infracommunity descriptors (diversity, dominance, abundance) are compared when calculated with the number and body volume of the parasites in a sample of 26 southern pomfrets Brama australis collected in the area off Talcahuano, Chile. No

Parasite, 2011 The structure and stability of parasite communities have been mainly explained by high diversity and strong interactions among parasite species. During 16 months, 558 Barbus martorelli gill infracommunities were studied in a tropical zone to determine ...

Nest box location determines the exposure of the host to ectoparasites
Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2020 Nest box supplementation is a widely used technique to aid in the conservation of cavity nesting bird species. However, the criteria to choose the best location for nest boxes has seldom considered the likely exposure of cavity-users to parasites.

Parasite, 2018 Two deep-sea shark species were obtained as by-catch of the local fishery of the Patagonian toothfish, Dissostichus eleginoides, at depths ranging from 1000 to 2200 m off central and northern Chile. A total of 19 parasite taxa were found in 133 specimens

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2015 Concomitant infection with more than one parasite species is the rule in nature. Since co-infecting parasites are exploiting the same host, interspecific interactions at the infracommunity level are likely. The nature of such interactions can be expected

Structure of the parasite infracommunity of Sciades proops from the Japaratuba River Estuary, Sergipe, Brazil [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2015 The catfish species Sciades proops inhabits muddy estuaries and shallow brackish lagoons, as well as freshwater. For these reasons, it is believed that this species may act as an intermediate, definitive and paratenic host in the life cycle of many ...

Factors at multiple scales drive parasite community structure. [PDF]
J Anim Ecol, 2023 Beta‐diversity and nestedness may vary with ecological scale, which can reveal important drivers of community assembly and structure. Using parasite communities, the authors demonstrate that failing to account for patterns at one level alters the interpretation of ecological drivers at another.
