Ectoparasites of the endemic rodent Abrocoma bennetti (Hystricomorpha: Abrocomidae) from semiarid Chile
ABSTRACT A total of 13 individuals of the rodent Abrocoma bennetti were captured and 354 ectoparasites belonging to 10 different species were collected and analyzed. The most abundant species was the Phthiraptera Monogyropus longus (61.54%), followed by the Siphonaptera Neotyphloceras chilensis (38....
