This study comparatively analyzed the mitogenome characteristics of 131 species that represent 18 superfamilies in Muscomorpha, in which mitogenomes of 16 species are newly sequenced and annotated herein. Further, we deduced their phylogenetics using maximum likelihood, and discussed their divergence time and evolution combined with taxonomy and ...

Bat guano may contain zoonotic parasites that contaminate the environment and/or serve as a potential source of infection to humans and animals. Repeated bat–human exposure could be a risk factor for zoonosis. To date, knowledge on the status of bat gastrointestinal parasites (GIPs) in Uganda is limited.

Bats play a major role in the circulation of zoonotic pathogens. Mites (Macronyssidae and Spinturnicidae) may facilitate the long‐term maintenance (and even local recurrence) of Bartonella‐infestations. Mites may transmit several distinct Bartonella strains, which cluster phylogenetically close to Bartonella species known for their zoonotic role ...

Effects of fungal infection on the survival of parasitic bat flies
Background Parasites are able to alter numerous aspects of their hosts’ life history, behaviour and distribution. One central question in parasitology is to determine the degree of impact that parasites have on their hosts.

The Nycteribiidae of the Ethiopian Region and Madagascar
Only 10 species of Nycteribiidae have been recorded previously from the Ethiopian Region and 3 further species from Madagascar. The writer recently described the new genusDipseliopodawith three species, a new species ofEucampsipodafrom Africa and another from Madagascar, (Theodor, 1955), 3 new species ofBasiliaand a new species ofTripseliafrom Africa ...

A citizen science project found evidence that three species of louse fly, which had previously been considered to be vagrants, are now breeding in the United Kingdom. Pseudolynchia garzettae was found on Nightjars, Ornithomya biloba on Swallows and Sand Martins and free flying Pseudolynchia canariensis were found in London.

Infracomunidades de moscas ectoparasitas (Diptera: Streblidae e Nycteribiidae) de morcegos (Mammalia : Chiroptera) em três unidades de conservação no estado do Amapá, Brasil [PDF]
Dípteros pertencentes as famílias Nycteribiidae e Streblidae são ectoparasitos hematófagos, sendo exclusivamente de morcegos. O estado do Amapá localiza-se na região Norte do Brasil e representa um dos estados com as menores taxas de desmatamento do país,
