Molecular detection of Bartonella spp. and Rickettsia spp. in bat ectoparasites in Brazil. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 The family Streblidae comprises a monophyletic group of Hippoboscoidea, hematophagous dipterans that parasitize bats. Bartonella spp. and Rickettsia spp.

Polychromophilus spp. (Haemosporida: Plasmodiidae): First Molecular Detection in Bat Flies From Brazilian Bats. [PDF]
Integr ZoolThis study identifies Polychromophilus sp. in blood‐feeding flies (Basilia speiseri and Basilia lindolphoi) from Myotis nigricans bats in Brazil, marking the first molecular detection of the parasite in an insect vector in this country. Two haplotypes were identified, both within the Polychromophilus murinus group.

Review of the bat flies of honduras, central america (Diptera: streblidae). [PDF]
J Parasitol Res, 2013 Streblid bat flies are obligate and host‐specific blood‐feeding ectoparasites of bats. While the bat flies of some American countries are well studied (e.g., Panama, Venezuela), little is known about Honduran Streblidae. Accumulation of substantial numbers of specimens, from several different collections, has enabled a relatively thorough treatment of ...

Laboulbeniales hyperparasites (Fungi, Ascomycota) of bat flies: Independent origins and host associations. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2018 In this article, we focus on a fascinating hyperparasitic study system. More specifically, we study the ectoparasitic fungi that are associated with the flies that are bloodsucking ectoparasites of bats (Mammalia and Chiroptera). We make an important contribution to the field by (a) applying new methodologies for DNA extraction (including a whole ...

Ectoparasite Community Structure of Two Bats (Myotis lucifugus and M. septentrionalis) from the Maritimes of Canada. [PDF]
J Parasitol Res, 2011 Prevalence of bat ectoparasites on sympatric Myotis lucifugus and M. septentrionalis was quantitatively characterized in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick by making systematic collections at swarming sites. Six species of ectoparasite were recorded, including Myodopsylla insignis, Spinturnix americanus, Cimex adjunctus, Macronyssu scrosbyi, Androlaelap ...

Ectoparasitic flies (Diptera: Streblidae) on bats (Mammalia: Chiroptera) from a Private Natural Heritage Reserve in southeastern Brazil [PDF]
Papéis Avulsos de Zoologia, 2021 Due to the small number of records of Streblidae on bats, despite extensive study on these mammals in the state of Rio de Janeiro, a survey was carried out in an area of the Atlantic Forest.

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 686-699, September 2021., 2021 Network analyses of 6528 bats associated with 6077 ectoparasitic bat flies revealed extremely high host specificity, with organisation of the network in small subsets reflecting a highly modular network structure. Module structure appeared not to be host‐phylogeny driven, instead modules were often composed of bat species known to share roosting ...

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2011 The mark-recapture method allows analysis on the variation in the abundance of bat ectoparasites at consecutive captures. The objectives of this study were to compare the pattern of Streblidae parasitism between capture and recapture of C. perspicillata;

New records of bat flies (Diptera: Streblidae) in Oaxaca, Mexico
Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2019 Species richness and parasitic prevalence of bat flies in a bat cave community in Oaxaca are reported. Between 2016 and 2018, a total of 732 bats were captured and inspected for streblids.
