Two New Species of the Genus Periglischrus (Acari: Mesostigmata: Spinturnicidae) on Two Bat Species of the Genus Tonatia (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae) from Southeastern Mexico, with Additional Data…
TLDR
The morphological features of the two new species of Periglischrus are used as a basis for discussing their phylogeny and its potential relationship to that of their hosts.

Detection of Dengue Virus in Bat Flies (Diptera: Streblidae) of Common Vampire Bats, Desmodus rotundus, in Progreso, Hidalgo, Mexico.
TLDR
This study detects Flavivirus sequences in 38 pools of ectoparasites and 8 tissue samples of D. rotundus by RT-PCR and semi-nested PCR using FlaviPF1S, FlaviPR2bis, and Flavi3S primers specific for NS5, a gene highly conserved among flaviviruses.

Parasites of Tadarida brasiliensis mexicana (Chiroptera: Molossidae) from Arid Regions of Mexico
TLDR
Ninety-eight Mexican free-tailed bats, Tadarida brasiliensis mexicana, collected from 4 locations in Mexico between November 1996 and June 1998, were examined for metazoan parasites, and Chiroptonyssus robustipes was the most prevalent and abundant parasite in all 4 localities.

Habitat fragmentation and the prevalence of parasites (Diptera, Streblidae) on three Phyllostomid bat species
TLDR
Evidence is provided that some species of Streblidae may respond differently to habitat fragmentation than their hosts, generating changes to bat‐ectoparasite interactions in fragmented areas.
