Nasal mites (Gamasida: Rhinonyssidae) of Paroaria coronata (Miller) (Passeriformes: Emberezidae)

Abstract: With the aim of identifying the species of nasal mites of Paroaria coronata (red-crested cardinal), the nasal cavity of 40 birds were examined. The nasal mites were identi ied as Ptilonyssus sairae de Castro and Sternostoma pirangae Pence, with 50% and 7.5% of prevalence, respectively. This is the irst record of these mite species parasitizing P. coronata. This report also ampli ies the area of occurrence of S. pirangae for Brazil and that of P. sairae for Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.

“…multiple dispersal vectors within communities (e.g. plant-frugivore (Carlo et al 2011;Mello et al 2011) and bird/human-mite (Latta 2003;Perotti and Braig 2009;Mascarenhas et al 2010)). The networks of interactions between dispersed taxa and their vectors can be considered as "the architecture of biodiversity" (Bascompte and Jordano 2014).…”

“…Most studies of nasal mites has taxonomic character and consist in descriptions and re-descriptions species, construction of identification keys and researches of nasal mites in wildlife largely realized in North America (Pence, 1973a(Pence, ,b, 1975Spicer, 1987;Knee & Proctor, 2006, 2010Knee et al, 2008). Others were realized in Cuba (Cerny & Dusbabek, 1970), Australia (Domrow, 1978;Proctor & Owens, 2000), Russia (Dimov & Mascarenhas, 2012), and Brazil (Amaral & Rebouças, 1974a;Mascarenhas et al, 2009Mascarenhas et al, , 2011Coimbra et al, 2012;Bernardon et al, 2013Bernardon et al, , 2015Bernardon et al, , 2017Mendes et al, 2014 andSinkoc et al, 2016. In recent decades, complementary studies on phylogenetic relationships that use molecular techniques have been developed (Rojas et al, 2001(Rojas et al, , 2002Morelli & Spicer, 2007) while studies that analyze the infections by nasal mites in the host, such as the one performed in this study with Passeriformes, are little discussed.…”

“…Coimbra (2007) reported the parasitism in Columbina picui (Temminck, 1813) by Mesonyssus sp., Avancini (2009) reported the parasitism by Rhinonyssus sp. in Vanellus chilensis (Molina, 1782), and Mascarenhas et al (2011) reported Ptilonyssus sairae (Castro, 1948) and Sternostoma pirangae (Pence, 1976) in Paroaria coronata (Miller, 1776). In this context, this study aims to contribute to the knowledge of nasal mites of Brazilian birds.…”
