Abstract Background The establishment of Burmese pythons (Python bivittatus)in Everglades National Park, Florida, USA, has been connected to a > 90% decline in the mesomammal population in the park and is a major threat to native reptile and bird populations. Efforts to control this population are…

- Highly Competent Native Snake Hosts Extend the Range of An Introduced Parasite Beyond Its Invasive Burmese Python Host
Melissa A. Miller, John M. Kinsella, Ray W. Snow et al. · Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America · 2020-10 · open access
Invasive Burmese pythons have introduced a pentastome parasite, Raillietiella orientalis, to southern Florida that has spilled over to infect half of South Florida’s native snake species. Native snakes are highly susceptible to R. orientalis infection, exhibiting higher prevalence and infection…

Walden HDS, Iredale ME, Childress A et al. · Frontiers in veterinary science · 2020-08 · open access
Introduction Pentastomes are obligate, internal parasites found mainly in the respiratory tracts of their definitive hosts, which include mammals, reptiles, amphibians and birds. Pentastomes have indirect life cycles, and use mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish, or coprophagous insects as…
- Highly competent native snake hosts extend the range of an introduced parasite beyond its invasive Burmese python host
Melissa A. Miller, John M. Kinsella, Ray W. Snow et al. · Ecosphere · 2020-06 · open access
Abstract Invasive Burmese pythons ( Python bivittatus ) have introduced a nonnative pentastomid parasite ( Raillietiella orientalis ) to southern Florida that has spilled over to infect native snakes. However, the extent of spillover, regarding prevalence and intensity, is unknown. We examined…
