Title: Parasite and viral species richness of Southeast Asian bats: Fragmentation of area distribution matters Document date: 2014_7_8
ID: rcpb2fyy_46
Snippet: Parasite richness could be considered as a zoonotic pool involving a risk for human health. According to this view the negative effect of bat distribution shape on endoparasite and viral species richness could be consider as protective for humans. However, fragmentation, due to changes in land use by humans, increase rates of contact between humans and animals (Plowright et al., 2011) . This contact may be a critical factor underlying spillover (.....
Document: Parasite richness could be considered as a zoonotic pool involving a risk for human health. According to this view the negative effect of bat distribution shape on endoparasite and viral species richness could be consider as protective for humans. However, fragmentation, due to changes in land use by humans, increase rates of contact between humans and animals (Plowright et al., 2011) . This contact may be a critical factor underlying spillover (Keesing et al., 2009) . Moreover, habitat fragmentation may favour emergence as the decline of PSR reduces interspecific competitive interactions that could benefits some pathogens.
