Additionally, the relationships between host attributes and environmental factors and the presence and abundance of helminths in bats have seldom been examined. In this study, we evaluated how host traits and environmental conditions may influence the prevalence and abundance of helminths in two cave-dwelling populations of the broad-tailed bat\n                    <jats:italic>Nyctinomops laticaudatus<\/jats:italic>\n                    in the state of Yucat\u00e1n, Mexico.
