Phoresy by Pseudoscorpions [PDF]
The Great Lakes Entomologist, 2017 Excerpt: Phoretic behavior involving a non-parasitic association of a larger animal by a smaller animal resulting in transportation is well-documented in some pseudoscorpions. Muchmore (1971) summarized the records of pseudoscorpion phoresy in Central and North America as presented by Beier and as published since 1948.

First record of phoresy of Dendrochernes cyrneus (L. Koch, 1873) (Pseudoscorpiones, Chernetidae) on Cerambyx cerdo Linnaeus, 1758 (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae) and their potential value as bioindicators [PDF]
Animal Biodiversity and Conservation, 2017 The first evidence of phoresy of Dendrochernes cyrneus (L. Koch, 1873) on Cerambyx cerdo Linnaeus, 1758 is documented. A critical review of all known literature reports of phoresy involving D. cyrneus is also presented. Two of these reports relate to the

Migratory Songbirds as Potential Ectozoochorous Protist Dispersal Vectors
Ecology and EvolutionProtist biogeography, speciation, and systematics continue to generate debate and inquiry because protist distributions and dispersal remain poorly resolved.

Importance of phoresy in the transmission of Acarina.
Parassitologia, 2007 Dispersal capacity plays a central role in the radiation of animals, facilitating the exploitation of habitats variously distributed in space or in time or both. Many living species are unable to leave a host, crawl around, and find a new host, so they must rely on external factors to be transmitted.

Panel statement on young pine plants used for afforestation or reforestation as pathway for pinewood nematode (PWN) <i>Bursaphelenchus xylophilus</i>. [PDF]
EFSA JAbstract Pinewood nematode (PWN) (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) is a destructive pest of Pinus trees worldwide which depends for transmission on the cerambycid insects of the genus Monochamus. EFSA was asked to assess the potential role of young host plants for afforestation or reforestation planting as a pathway for PWN. According to legislation (EU COM/

Local Resource Heterogeneity Drives Density-Dependent Dispersal Expression in a Phoretic Mite. [PDF]
Ecol EvolRegional heterogeneity often selects for dispersal, as this allows individuals to move between environments. However, individuals do not experience regional conditions and must make developmental decisions based on local cues. Using long‐term population experiments, we find that local heterogeneity influences dispersal by exacerbating competition ...
