The specificity of host-bat fly interaction networks across vegetation and seasonal variation

This study confirms the high specialization of host–bat fly interactions and shows the importance of biotic and abiotic factors to understand the dynamics of parasite–host interactions.

Predicting Geographic and Ecological Distributions of Triatomine Species in the Southern Mexican State of Puebla Using Ecological Niche Modeling

The genetic algorithm for rule-set production (GARP) was used to achieve the potential distribution of the ecological niche of triatomines and showed that Triatoma barberi and Meccus pallidipennis are sympatric and widely distributed in the central-southern part of the state.

Presence of Seropositive Patients to Trypanosoma cruzi in a Municipality of the Mixtec Sierra of the State of Puebla: A Preliminary Study

The results suggested that the municipality of Huatlatlauca in the Mixteca Sierra of the state of Puebla is an area with endemic potential for the disease with a high prevalence rate in the adult population and with cases in newborns, these high transmission rates are probably associated with problems of congenital and vector transmission.

Household risk factors associated to infestation of Triatoma dimidiata, the Chagas disease vector in Central Region of Veracruz, Mexico.

These results help to improve the surveillance capacity for this vector and the control strategies to reduce the transmission of Chagas disease in the state of Veracruz and other sites where this species is present.

Host ecology moderates the specialization of Neotropical bat-fly interaction networks

The roosting ecology of bats could be a key factor to understand the mechanisms related to the horizontal transmission of ectoparasitic flies among bats, and findings support previous findings that bat-fly interactions are specialized, resulting in lower niche overlap among bat flies species.

The effects of seasonality on host–bat fly ecological networks in a temperate mountain cave

It is suggested that seasonality promote: (1) differences in host species composition, and (2) a reduction in the specialization of host–parasite ecological networks.

Population Composition and Ectoparasite Prevalence on Bats (Sturnira ludovici; Phyllostomidae) in Forest Fragments and Coffee Plantations of Central Veracruz, Mexico

Studies comparing the abundance of frugivorous bats in shade‐coffee plantations and forest fragments report contradictory results, and have not taken into account the landscape context in which…
