Identification and Optimization of Microbial Attractants for Philornis downsi, an Invasive Fly Parasitic on Galapagos Birds

Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2016
We investigated the role of olfactory cues from actively fermenting yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) in attraction of adult Philornis downsi and identified two synergistically attractive yeast volatiles. Larvae of this invasive fly parasitize the hatchlings of passerines and threaten the Galapagos avifauna.

Host-Specific Associations Affect the Microbiome of Philornis downsi, an Introduced Parasite to the Galápagos Islands

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, 2017
The composition and diversity of bacteria forming the microbiome of parasitic organisms have implications for differential host pathogenicity and host–parasite co‐evolutionary interactions. The microbiome of pathogens can therefore have consequences that

Interannual and interspecific variation in intensity of the parasitic fly, Philornis downsi, in Darwin’s finches

Biological Conservation, 2007
An integrative approach to managing host-parasite interactions that threaten species communities will benefit from identifying variation in parasite impact across host species, and host-parasite responses to annual climatic variation. We examine interannual, inter- and intraspecific variation in Philornis downsi intensity - an introduced blood sucking ...

Distribution of the introduced parasitic fly Philornis downsi (Diptera, Muscidae) in the Galapagos Islands

Pacific Conservation Biology, 2007
The avifauna of the Galapagos islands is characterized by a small number of endemic species, including the 13 species of Darwin's finches. The introduced fly parasite Philornis downsi reduces nestling survival and growth rate of altricial birds, and can cause mortality and morbidity of the nestlings. We examined the occurrence of Philornis downsi among
