Abstract

[...]there are few studies about ectoparasites of bats, among which the so-called bat flies (Dptera: Streblidae and Nycteribiidae) stand out, with a total of 158 species estimated for the Neotropical region. In this study we updated the knowledge of the ectoparasite-host associations in bats from the Peruvian coast, one of the regions of the country with the most degradation and loss of habitat. Five locations in the Piura, Lima and Tacna regions were evaluated. 85 bats belonging to 7 species were captured: 4 from Phyllostomidae, 2 from Molossidae and 1 from Vespertilionidae. Resultados y discusión Se capturaron 85 murciélagos pertenecientes a 7 especies; 4 filostómidos (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae): Artibeus fraterculus (11), Glossophaga soricina (14), Plataiina genovensium (33) y Anoura peruana (4); 2 molósidos (Chiroptera: Molossidae): Molossus molossus (20) y Nyctinomops macrotis (2), y un vespertiliónido (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae): Histiotus montanus (5).
