Sarcoptes scabiei infestation does not alter the stability of ectoparasite communitiesDOI: 10.1186/s13071-016-1659-2 Keywords: Capra pyrenaica, Community ecology, Ecosystem engineer, Multiparasitism, Sarcoptes scabiei Abstract: The host represents a heterogeneous ecosystem where multiple parasite species co-occur and interact with each other for space and resources. Although these interactions may rule the features of an infracommunity and may shape the infracommunity response to external perturbations, the resilience of ectoparasite communities to new infestations remains poorly explored
