Moscas de murciélagos en algunas localidades de la costa peruana
En el Perú se registran al menos 180 especies de murciélagos. Sin embargo, son pocos los estudios acerca de sus ectoparásitos, dentro de los cuales destacan las denominadas moscas de murciélagos (Diptera: Streblidae y Nycteribiidae), en los cuales se ...

First records of ectoparasitic insects (Diptera: Hippoboscoidea) of bats in the department of Caldas, Colombia [PDF]
In Colombia, the taxonomical understanding of ectoparasites (Diptera: Streblidae and Nycteribiidae) of bats is scarce, despite the high diversity of hosts.

Trends in Bacterial Pathogens of Bats: Global Distribution and Knowledge Gaps
Bats have received considerable recent attention for infectious disease research because of their potential to host and transmit viruses, including Ebola, Hendra, Nipah, and multiple coronaviruses. These pathogens are occasionally transmitted from bats to wildlife, livestock, and to humans, directly or through other bridging (intermediate) hosts.

The claws of the ectoparasitic flies of the Hippoboscoidea are most important to attach securely to the host fur. The gap between claw and claw base is of the same size as the hosts' hair, so that the flies' claws can interlock with the hosts' fur.

Abstract Bartonella species are facultative intracellular bacteria and recognized worldwide as emerging zoonotic pathogens. Bartonella were isolated or identified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in bats and their ectoparasites worldwide, whereas the association between them was scarce, especially in Asia. In this study, a retrospective analysis with

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 ...

Signs of a vector's adaptive choice: on the evasion of infectious hosts and parasite-induced mortality [PDF]
Laboratory and field experiments have demonstrated in many cases that malaria vectors do not feed randomly, but show important preferences either for infected or non-infected hosts.
