Blood Parasites and Wildlife: The Development of a Discipline
Changes in our knowledge on blood parasite infections of wild animals in the last 30 years is reviewed with emphasis on taxonomy and phylogeny, impact of infections on fitness, and distribution of blood parasites. ABSTRACT In the last 30 years, the area of the study of parasitism caused by blood parasite infections on wildlife has suffered an ...

Abstract The large genus Campylocheta Rondani, 1859, comprising 48 species, occurs in all major biogeographical regions of the world, except Antarctica. Homohypochaeta Townsend, 1927 and Hypochaetopsis Townsend, 1915 are two Neotropical genera similar to Campylocheta, with only two and one species respectively.

Ocorrência de anticorpos anti-Neospora spp. em jumentos (Equus asinus) no estado de Sucre - Colômbia
A neosporose tem grande importância em bovinos, e sua patogênese neste hospedeiro, em termos gerais, está esclarecida, porém, em equídeos é pobremente conhecida. Na Colômbia ainda não foram reportados anticorpos Anti-Neospora spp.

Citizen scientists and an expert jointly monitor Biomphalaria snails (the intermediate host of Schistosoma mansoni) in rural areas of southwest Uganda, generating over 4500 georeferenced records. By comparing expert‐ and citizen‐based distribution models under perfect and imperfect detection, we demonstrate that site type and NDVI consistently ...

Reduced Offspring Viability Is Associated With Long‐Term Stability of a Narrow Avian Hybrid Zone
We investigated hybrid viability in a tropical, avian hybrid zone governed by strong selection on male secondary sexual traits between the white‐collared manakin (Manacus candei) and golden‐collared manakin (M. vitellinus). We assessed putative hybrid fitness by investigating adult survival and hatching success along with a prospective selective ...

ABSTRACT Vector control remains an important strategy worldwide to prevent human infection with pathogens transmitted by arthropods. Vector control strategies rely on accurate identification of vector taxa along with vector‐specific biological indicators such as feeding ecology, infection prevalence and insecticide resistance.
