Urban bats show dietary flexibility in aquatic arthropod consumption at urban and rural waterbodies
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Urban waterbodies are critical for biodiversity and provide feeding grounds for insectivorous bats. Yet, how urbanisation affects bats' food choices at urban waterbodies and the role of emergent aquatic arthropods remain poorly understood. We compared the diet of three urban bat species – Vespadelus vulturnus, Chalinolobus gouldii,and Myotis macropus –

The first data on bat ectoparasites (Acarina, Insecta) in the Baikal region and Yakutia (eastern Siberia) [PDF]
Check List, 2016 This paper summarizes new data on ectoparasites from bats (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae) from eastern Siberia (Russia). The existence of 14 bat ectoparasite species is confirmed for this territory, including eight species of gamasid mites (Gamasina ...

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.The relationship between the position of a flea species in the networks and its functional originality was found to be consistently positive in all realms, independently of which originality index was used. ABSTRACT We investigated the relationships between a species’ network position (measured as the combined normalized degree, species strength, and ...

Impact of environmental factors on small mammals and their fleas
Folia OecologicaSmall mammals in the Horšianska dolina-Valley were researched first in 1984–86 and later in 2016–19. This paper seeks to identify and assess the species composition and dynamics of fleas (Siphonaptera) found in the valley on small mammals of Rodentia and

Larval character evolution in Holometabola (Insecta)
Cladistics, EarlyView.Abstract Larvae, a novel type of immature stage, are a crucial innovation of the Holometabola. Larval features therefore provide key evidence for reconstructing evolutionary transformations in this megadiverse group. Here we present the first formal reconstruction of larval character evolution, using maximum parsimony and Bayesian ancestral‐state ...
