Genetic variation is predominantly structured by geography rather than host in feather mites (Acariformes: Sarcoptiformes) associated with tanagers (Aves: Thraupidae) in Brazil

Entomological Communications, 2021
Feather mites are the most common ectosymbionts on birds. These obligatory symbionts are mainly transmitted during their host’s parental care, which creates high host specificity.

Invasive giant river prawns as opportunistic, generalist predators in the Amazon Delta: Insights from metabarcoding

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Invasive species alter habitats and biological communities. The giant river prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii (de Man 1879) was introduced to Brazil for aquaculture, and invasive populations have established in the Amazon Delta region where they are believed to pose a risk to the native aquatic fauna.

Harnessing Environmental DNA to Explore Frugivorous Interactions: A Case Study in Papaya (Carica papaya) and Pineapple (Ananas comosus)

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 5, September–October 2025.
Simplified workflow of environmental DNA metabarcoding from fruits of papaya (Carica papaya) and pineapple (Ananas comosus). ABSTRACT Plant–animal interactions (PAIs) are critical in natural and agricultural ecosystems, mediating energy flow with both positive and negative interactions.

Two new mite parasites of Natal bats (Listrophoridae, Sarcoptiformes)

Parasitology, 1952
Three species of Listrophorid mites representing two genera, Alabidocarpus and Labidocarpus, are known from the European horse-shoe bat Rhinolophus ferroequinum, and one species of Alabidocarpus, A. nasicolus, has already been described (1938) from the closely related Natal horseshoe bat Rhinolophus geoffroyi zuluensis.

Optimizing eDNA Metabarcoding Techniques for Assessing Arthropod Communities in Tree‐Related Microhabitats

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 1, January–February 2025.
This study highlights the significance of using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding to study forest arthropods associated with tree‐related microhabitats (TreMs) and deadwood. We find that our tree surface sampling effectively captured ecologically significant arthropods associated with TreMs, exhibiting overlap with other deadwood sediment samples ...
