(Brazilian College of Veterinary Parasitology, 2017)Central Chile has been identified as a unique ecosystem with high conservation priority because of its high levels of endemism and intensive anthropic pressure. Over a period of almost four decades, the monk parakeet has ...
-
(Brazilian College of Veterinary Parasitology, 2017)Introduced species can arrive into new territories with parasites; however, these species are expected to face lower parasite richness than in their original regions. Both introduced hosts and parasites can affect native ...
