Parasitization of bats by bat flies (Streblidae) in fragmented habitats
Biotropica, Volume 52, Issue 3, Page 488-501, May 2020., 2020 Abstract Parasites represent a large fraction of the world's biodiversity. They control host population sizes and contribute to ecosystem functioning. However, surveys on species diversity rarely include parasitic species. Bats often present traits favoring parasite diversity, such as large home ranges, long life spans, and large colonies.
