Acari of lizards from Atlantic Forest in northeastern Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesNeotropical Biology and Conservation, 2019
Although mites are often associated with reptiles, there is little information available about parasites of lizards in Brazil. The aim of this study was to identify the ectoparasites of the lizards Kentropyx calcarata (Squamata: Teiidae ...

Historical fire in longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) forests of south Mississippi and its relation to land use and climate

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 7, Issue 11, November 2016., 2016
Abstract We characterized historical fire regimes in Pinus palustris (longleaf pine) forests of southern Mississippi with regard to global and regional coupled climate systems (e.g., El Niño–Southern Oscillation) and past human activity. The composite fire chronology spanned 1756–2013 with 132 individual scars representing 89 separate fire events.

New Records for Ectoparasites of Michigan Bats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
During 1978, 1979, and 1981 ectoparasites of bats were collected in 16 counties of the Upper and Lower peninsulas in connection with an extensive study of Michigan bat populations (Kurta 1980, 1982).

Bluer in the city: urban male lizards exhibit more intense sexual coloration and lower parasite loads than non‐urban males

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, Volume 20, Issue 4, Page 894-908, July 2025.
The urban environment may exert different selective pressures on sexually selected traits than more pristine environments. Our study shows that sexual coloration is more saturated (bluer) in male lizards from urban environments than in male non‐urban lizards. The average parasite load is lower in urban lizards than in non‐urban lizards.

Diversity of bartonellae in mites (Acari: Mesostigmata: Macronyssidae and Spinturnicidae) of boreal forest bats: Association of host specificity of mites and habitat selection of hosts with vector potential

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 4, Page 518-529, December 2024.
Bats play a major role in the circulation of zoonotic pathogens. Mites (Macronyssidae and Spinturnicidae) may facilitate the long‐term maintenance (and even local recurrence) of Bartonella‐infestations. Mites may transmit several distinct Bartonella strains, which cluster phylogenetically close to Bartonella species known for their zoonotic role ...
