Mapping the social network: tracking lice in a wild primate (Microcebus rufus) population to infer social contacts and vector potential
BACKGROUND: Studies of host-parasite interactions have the potential to provide insights into the ecology of both organisms involved. We monitored the movement of sucking lice (Lemurpediculus verruculosus), parasites that require direct host-host contact to be transferred, in their host population o...
