dc.description.abstract |
The host-parasite associations between feather mites and their North America non-passeriform avian hosts are presented. From this non-passiform fauna numbering 398 species, host-parasite associations from 267 bird species have been included in this study. Extensive collecting of feather mites from museum study skins as well as verified records in the literature have shown these birds to host 125 feather mite general currently assigned to 18 families. The annotated list of host-parasite associations includes the host, feather parasites, and the geographical provenience of the specimens. Mite records from other geographical regions were included if the bird species also occurred in North America. A key to the feather mite families of the world has also been included. |
