Is the local environment more important than within‐host interactions in determining coinfection?
Host populations often vary in the magnitude of coinfection they experience across
environmental gradients. Furthermore, coinfection often occurs sequentially, with a second …

Odonates, gregarines and water mites: why are the same host species infected by both parasites?
JJ Ilvonen, KM Kaunisto, J Suhonen - Ecological Entomology, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
1. Damselflies and dragonflies are widely parasitised insects and numerous studies have
tried to understand this host–parasite relationship. However, most of these studies have …

Populations of the damselfly Coenagrion hastulatum at the edge of the species range have fewer gregarine and water mite parasites

The metapopulation theory predicts that the more distant a host population is from other
populations, the more challenged will be a parasite to colonise it. We studied parasite …

Negative covariance between water mite and gregarine parasitism for adult dragonflies, Leucorrhinia intacta (Hagen): an age-related pattern?
