Psyllotylenchus chabaudi, n. sp. (Nematodea, Tylenchida : Allantonematidae), parasite de Nosopsyllus fasciatus (Bosc) (Siphonaptera : Ceratophyllidae) [PDF]
Annales de Parasitologie Humaine et Comparée, 1984 The authors describe a new species of entomogenous Nematoda: Psyllotylenchus chabaudi n. sp. (Tylenchida: Allantonematidae) parasite of Nosopsyllus fasciatus (Bosc) (Siphonaptera: Ceratophyllidae), a rat flea, accidentally present on Oryctolagus cuniculus. The new species of Allantonematidae presents in particular a very large preuteral gland.

Phylogenetic Analysis of Entomoparasitic Nematodes, Potential Control Agents of Flea Populations in Natural Foci of Plague [PDF]
BioMed Research International, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Entomoparasitic nematodes are natural control agents for many insect pests, including fleas that transmit Yersinia pestis, a causative agent of plague, in the natural foci of this extremely dangerous zoonosis. We examined the flea samples from the Volga‐Ural natural focus of plague for their infestation with nematodes.

A review and illustrated description of Musca crassirostris, one of the most neglected haematophagous livestock flies [PDF]
Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 16-30, March 2019., 2019 Musca crassirostris belongs to a group of true obligate blood feeders that are highly prolific and abundant around cattle. Its mentum is a boat‐shaped, black, shiny mass of chitin, and its labella harbours rasping prestomal teeth that are greatly increased in size and strength compared with those in other Musca spp.

Journal of Natural History, 2012 We used light and electron microscopy to detail the in vivo life cycle of the nematode Thripinema fuscum and to determine the effects of parasitism on tissues of the thrips host Frankliniella fusca. The parasitic T. fuscum female produced eggs within 4–5 days after ingress and the host haemocoele became packed with eggs and developing juvenile ...
