Abstract excerpt

Haemosporidian parasites of the genus Polychromophilus are blood parasites infecting bats worldwide and transmitted by obligate hematophagous flies of the family Nycteribiidae. Despite increasing molecular data in Europe, their diversity, distribution, and host-vector associations remain poorly documented in parts of Western Europe. This study provides molecular evidence of Polychromophilus lineages in the...
