Ethology, Volume 129, Issue 8, Page 432-443, August 2023., 2023 We showed that parasitised and unparasitised garden skinks (Lampropholis guichenoti) did not differ in whole‐organism performance (endurance and foraging efficiency) or their thermal preference. However, sprint speed was negatively related to ectoparasite infection.

In Vivo Observation of Trombiculosis with Fluorescence–Advanced Videodermatoscopy
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020 Trombiculosis is a skin infestation by larvae of mites of the Trombiculidae family. We used fluorescence–advanced videodermatoscopy to diagnose trombiculosis in a woman in Italy with targetoid patches. This method might be useful for identifying atypical

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 70, Issue 4, July/August 2023., 2023 Abstract Despite reptile trypanosomes forming a large group, the majority of species descriptions are data deficient, lacking key characteristic data and supporting molecular data. Reptile hosts show potential to facilitate transmission of zoonotic trypanosomiases and offer key information to understanding the genus of Trypanosoma.

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 85, Issue 6, June 2023., 2023 The study revealed significant yearly changes in ectoparasite infestation for (a) Haemaphysalis spp. (ticks), (b) Schoutendenichia microcebi (mites), (c) Lemurpediculus spp. (lice), and (d) ectoparasite species richness. Displayed is the proportion of ectoparasite occurrence (yes: in black, no: in gray, a–c) and the distribution of the ectoparasite ...
