Bat flies are haematophagous ectoparasites, highly specialised to bats and are also considered to have vectorial potential for several pathogens like spp. or spp. In Romania, past studies mostly focused on the ectoparasitic fauna of cave-dwelling bats, listing the occurrence of 10 bat fly species in the country, with only scarce information on bat flies infesting crevice-roosting bat species. Here we report the occurrence of , a rare nycteribiid species infesting primarily forest-dwelling bats. This is the first country-record for Romania and also represents the easternmost occurrence of this species. Further studies are needed to evaluate the vectorial potential of .
蝙蝠蝇是吸血性外寄生虫,高度特化寄生于蝙蝠,也被认为对多种病原体如 spp. 或 spp. 具有传播潜力。在罗马尼亚,过去的研究主要集中在洞穴栖息蝙蝠的外寄生动物群,列出了该国10种蝙蝠蝇的出现情况,而关于侵害缝隙栖息蝙蝠物种的蝙蝠蝇的信息却很少。在此我们报告了 的出现情况,这是一种罕见的蝠蝇科物种,主要侵害栖息在森林中的蝙蝠。这是罗马尼亚的首次国家记录,也代表了该物种最东端的出现情况。需要进一步研究以评估 的传播潜力。
