“…All presented here records of ectoparasites are novel for the Park. The highest numbers of ectoparasites collected during this work belong to the order Gamasida what is in agreement with previous researches , Botelho 1978, Barros-Battesti et al 1998, Bossi et al 2002, Nava et al 2003, Nieri-Bastos et al 2004. Especially the mites from the family Laelapidae are commonly found on small mammals.…”

“…L. paulistanensis was found on all examined R. mastacalis and O. nigripes and on 2% of C. subflavus. According to literature L. paulistanensis parasitize commonly rodents from the genera Oligoryzomys and Oryzomys (Barros-Battesti et al 1998, Botelho 1990) and have been already observed parasitizing all mentioned above species , Nava et al 2003. L. differens was found on 83,3% of C. subflavus and on 33,3% of T. apereoides.…”

“…Most of the researches are concentrated on the southern and southeastern regions the country in floristic parts of the cities situated close to human settlements, where these ectoparasites are linked with human diseases , Guedes et al 2005, Barros-Batestti et al 2006, Guglielmone et al 2006. The studies are limited to the records of new species and taxonomical revisions, and there is a lack of researches concerning ecological relations between parasites and their hosts what has an extreme importance to understand the epidemiology of various diseases (Marshall 1981, Graciolli & Aguiar 2002, Nava et al 2003, Dias et al 2009, Ribeiro et al 2010). …”

El objetivo del presente estudio fue investigar la prevalencia de infestación de ectoparásitos asociados a mamíferos pequeños del Cerrado en el Parque Nacional Serra do Cipó, Estado de Minas Gerais, Brasil. De abril a septiembre de 2007, capturamos 95 mamíferos pequeños, los cuales representaron nueve especies: seis pertenecen al Orden Rodentia: Cerradomys subflavus (Wagner 1842), Nectomys squamipes (Brants 1827), Thrichomys apereoides (Lund,1939), Rhipidomys mastacalis (Lund 1840), Necromys lasiurus (Lund 1841), Oligoryzomys nigripes Olfers 1818, y tres al Orden Didelphimorphia: Gracilinanus agilis (Burmeister 1854), Marmosops incanus (Lund 1840) y Didelphis albiventris (Lund,1841). Identificamos ectoparásitos de cinco órdenes: Ixodida, Gamasida, Phthiraptera, Siphonaptera y Diptera y varias especies de ectoparasitos como: Amblyomma sp, Laelaps paulistanensis Fonseca 1936, Laelaps differens Fonseca 1936, Laelaps manguinhosi Fonseca 1936, Tur lativentralis (Fonseca 1936), Gigantolaelaps goyanensis Fonseca 1939, Gigantolaelaps vitzthumi Fonseca 1939, Androlaelaps (Haemolaelaps) fahrenholzi (Berleze 1911), Eubrachylaelaps rotundus (Fonseca1936), Mysolaelaps parvispinosus Fonseca 1936, Ctenophthirus cercomydis Ferris1922, Hoplopleura imparata Linardi 1984, Eogyropus lenti lenti Werneck 1936, Tunga penetrans (Linnaeus 1758) y Poligenes tripus (Jordania 1933). Para el parque, son nuevos todos los registros de ectoparásitos y agregamos también algunos hospederos.PALABRAS CLAVEBrasil, Cerrado, Parque Nacional Serra do Cipó, mamíferos, ectoparásitos.

“…In northwestern and central Argentina, it has been recorded in humid environments from Oligoryzomys and Oryzomys species (Mauri 1965, Lareschi & Mauri 1998, Lareschi et al 2003b). In the marshes of Buenos Aires and Entre Ríos Provinces, M. microspinosus was recorded mainly on O. flavescens and O. delticola (Lareschi 1996, Abba et al 2001, Lareschi et al 2003a, Nava et al 2003.

“…These results are in accordance with studies from Paraguay (Gettinger & Owen 2000) and Argentina (Mauri 1965, Lareschi 1996, Lareschi & Mauri 1998). In the last country, A. rotundus was recorded from the central and northern area (Lareschi & Mauri 1998), and is very abundant in the marshes of Rio de la Plata and Rio Paraná parasitizing A. azarae and D. kempi (Lareschi & Sánchez López 2000, Abba et al 2001, Liljesthröm & Lareschi 2002, Lareschi et al 2003a, Nava et al 2003.

Host selection and niche differentiation in sucking lice (Insecta: Anoplura) among small mammals in southwestern China

et al. 2010

Understanding factors that shape host selection has been a classic issue in ecology, evolutionary biology, and epidemiological investigation. During the survey from 2000 to 2009, a total of 11,216 individuals of small mammals were captured from Yunnan Province in southwestern China. The captured small mammalian hosts belong to five orders, ten families, 35 genera, and 65 species and from their body surface, 38,885 individuals of ectoparasitic sucking lice were collected, which represent five families, seven genera, and 31 species. Based on niche overlap of dominant sucking lice on their primary hosts, we used hierarchical cluster analysis to sort different sucking louse species' resource utilizations of similar kind into respective categories. Given λ<5, there are only two groups clustered, however, sucking louse species' resource utilization was sorted into eight respective categories at λ=15. The results revealed that most species of sucking lice usually had high host specificity and a certain species of sucking louse usually restricted to one or few small mammalian species as their dominant hosts. Correspondence analysis was used to visualize associations between parasitic sucking lice and their small mammalian hosts, which suggested three different patterns of host resource utilization: species specialists, genera generalists, and multiple selections. For example, Sathrax durus (Johnson) only parasitized on species of Tupaia belangeri (Wagner), Hoplopleura edentula (Fahredholz) predominatly on genus of Eothenomys, and Polyplax reclinata (Nitzsch) on Family of Soricidae. Our results demonstrate that sucking lice have high host specificity and this might be due to coevolution between sucking lice and their hosts.
