Phylogenetic analyses reveal bat communities in Northwestern Mexico harbour a high diversity of novel cryptic ectoparasite species
2022-08-11
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Parasites are integral parts of ecosystem function and important drivers of evolutionary processes. Characterising ectoparasite diversity is fundamental to studies of host-parasite interactions, evolution, and conservation, and also for understanding emerging disease threats for some vector borne pathogens. With more than 1,400 species, bats represent the second most speciose mammalian clade,...
