“…Regarding the number of individuals with infracommunities, we found a value higher than that reported by Bertola et al (2005) and Santos et al (2009) for S. lilium, even with less number of infestations (four) in this species. In C. perspicillata, we observed lower proportion of individuals infected with infracommunities (25.4%) than in these studies, which have captured less infested individuals (30 and 12, respectively).…”

In this work we record the highest number of bat flies species among those already performed in the Brazilian cerrado and discuss the associations and patterns of parasitism of these species and their hosts. A total of 1,390 ectoparasitic flies were collected, belonging to 24 species of Streblidae and one of Nycteribiidae, parasitizing 227 bats of 15 species. Among the species found, the presence of Trichobius sp. on Lonchophylla mordax and the first occurrence of Hershkovitzia sp. on Thyroptera devivoi are highlighted. Lophostoma species presented the highest proportion of individuals with infracommunities and the highest values of parasitological indexes. The high number of bat fly species and hosts, as well as the high values for rates of parasitism and infracommunities, suggests that this area of cerrado has good shelter conditions for these species. The abundance of species and high rates of parasitism detracts from the hypothesis that a higher mean intensity of ectoparasites results from lower competition among flies for hosts in areas with lower ectoparasite species richness. Biogeographical and historical factors of host populations, besides the number of host species and individuals sampled, may contribute to species number and intensity of parasitism.

“…Primary associations were determined when a host species had 5% or more of the individuals of a given parasite species (Dick, 2007), as well as considering high prevalence and mean intensity, and the literature data; while accidental or transitory associations in which a host was associated with less than 5% of the total individuals of a parasite species, in rare cases, and/or low prevalence and mean intensity (Dick, 2007;Santos et al, 2009).…”

“…The two Streblidae species considered in this analysis, T. joblingi and S. guajiro, are species commonly found in C. perspicillata (WENZEL, 1976;KOMENO;LINHARES, 1999;BERTOLA et al, 2005;GRACIOLLI et al, 2006;GETTINGER, 2005;DICK et al, 2007), and they may coexist in the same host (BERTOLA et al, 2005;SANTOS et al, 2009). Removal of ectoparasites may result in different proportions of ectoparasite species when reinfestation occurs, since individuals without ectoparasites may attract infestation by new species (WENZEL;TIPTON, 1966;TELLO et al, 2008).…”

The mark-recapture method allows analysis on the variation in the abundance of bat ectoparasites at consecutive captures. The objectives of this study were to compare the pattern of Streblidae parasitism between capture and recapture of C. perspicillata; ascertain whether the abundance of Streblidae varied with time after removal of ectoparasites at capture and analyze whether the intensity of parasitism remained the same in each individual at capture and recapture. Using bats netted in the State of Rio de Janeiro, 42 individuals of C. perspicillata parasitized by two Streblidae species, Trichobius joblingi Wenzel, 1966 and Strebla guajiro (Garcia & Casal, 1965), were selected. The pattern of parasitism observed at capture was similar at recapture. No relationship was observed between the capture-recapture time interval and the abundance of ectoparasites. There was no relationship between the abundances of ectoparasites at capture and recapture of each individual.
