We tested the hypothesis that a long-term evolutionary association led P. iheringi to choose very specific wing locations to infest the great fruit-eating bats, Artibeus lituratus. Seven anatomical wing regions and the uropatagium from 140 bats were analyzed and a total of 78 parasites were collected. Periglischrus iheringi had a significant preference for the plagiopatagium and dactylopatgium major wing regions (i.e., large, proximal regions) and infestation was directly correlated to area (r=0.9744). However, other factors may also influence mite choice, such as higher and more stable temperature and humidity, vascularization and lower risk of displacement.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/s1984-29612015022","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,8,26]],"date-time":"2015-08-26T18:49:37Z","timestamp":1440614977000},"page":"361-364","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Anatomical location of Periglischrus iheringi(Acari: Spinturnicidae) associated with the great fruit-eating bat (Chiroptera: Phyllostomidae)"],"prefix":"10.1590","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Juliana","family":"Almeida","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal Rural do Rio de Janeiro,  Brazil; Funda\u00e7\u00e3o Oswaldo Cruz,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nicolau","family":"Serra-Freire","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Funda\u00e7\u00e3o Oswaldo Cruz,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Adriano","family":"Peracchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal Rural do Rio de Janeiro,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"530","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,8,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","series-title":"Factors affecting the density and occurrence ectoparasites of bats","author":"Beck A","year":"1966"},{"issue":"3","key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"419","DOI":"10.1590\/S1519-69842002000300004","article-title":"Spatial use of rodents (Rodentia: Mammalia) host body surface by ectoparasites","volume":"62","author":"Bittencourt EB","year":"2002","journal-title":"Braz J Biol"},{"issue":"4","key":"ref3","first-page":"839","article-title":"Contribuci\u00f3n al conocimiento de HoplopeuraEnderlein, 1904 (Phitiraptera, Hoplopleuridae), ectoparasito de Neotomys ebriosus vulturmus Thomas, 1921 (Rodentia, Cricetidae)","volume":"34","author":"Castro D","year":"1990","journal-title":"Rev Bras Entomol"},{"issue":"6","key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1495","DOI":"10.1093\/ee\/24.6.1495","article-title":"Ecology of ectoparasites from tropical bats","volume":"24","author":"Gannon MR","year":"1995","journal-title":"Environ Entomol"},{"key":"ref5","first-page":"1","article-title":"Spinturnicid mites of Venezuela (Acarina: Spinturnicidae)","volume":"27","author":"Herrin CS","year":"1975","journal-title":"Brigham Young Univ Sci Bull Biol Ser"},{"key":"ref6","first-page":"155","article-title":"Beitr\u00e4ge zur kenntniss der arachniden.Sitzungsberichte der Kaiserlichen Akademie der Wissenschaften.
