Survival rate of bat bugs (Cimex pipistrelli, Heteroptera) under different microclimatic conditions
Original language description
Survival of facultative ectoparasites, e.g. bed bugs (Cimex spp.), is more intensely affected by climatic factors, namely temperature, than that of permanent ectoparasites. The ontogenetic time of the bat bug (Cimex pipistrelli) in bat roosts is limitedby different survival rates under different temperatures in particular nymphal stages. This limitation could affect bug densities and cause asynchrony between the ectoparasite and bat reproductive cycle. Therefore, bug survival under different temperatures was tested in the laboratory. Survival success was evaluated by three types of survival analyses: Kaplan Meier estimation, the Cox proportional hazards model and Weibull parametric regression. The bugs survived for only a few hours at 45C; however, such a high temperature was never found in natural roosts. Different survival probability among different ontogenetic stages was found at the temperatures of 5 35C, and it was the highest in adult females and nymphs of fourth and fifth inst
