Evolution of the Neopsylla hongyangensis Mitogenome: Insights Into the Mitogenomic Evolution of the Orders Siphonaptera and the Phthiraptera

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2025.
The Neopsylla hongyangensis is an important medical insect that transmits plague. We sequenced the mitogenome of N. hongyangensis and constructed a phylogenetic tree for the order Siphonaptera. In addition, we explored the mitogenomic evolution of the orders Siphonaptera and Phthiraptera, which both belong to the class Insects, on warm‐blooded animals ...

Diversity of Parasitic Fauna in Semi‐Scavenging Indigenous Chickens (Gallus gallus domesticus) in Bangladesh

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2025.
GI helminth and lice are highly prevalent in indigenous semi‐scavenging chickens. Seven species of helminths were detected, and Raillietina was predominant. Three species of lice were identified and Menopon gallinae was most abundant. Co‐infection was observed in helminth infections and lice infestation.

Molecular Detection and Isolation of Bartonella Species in Bats and Their Ectoparasites Along the China–Myanmar Border

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Bartonella are parasitic pathogens that infect many mammals, including humans, and cause significant diseases. This study investigates the presence, genetic diversity, and tissue tropism of Bartonella in bats and their ectoparasites along the China–Myanmar border. Bats and ectoparasites were collected from Yingjiang, Ruili, and Gengma Counties.

Molecular Prevalence and Identification of Zoonotic Plasmodium spp., Including Plasmodium knowlesi, Plasmodium cynomolgi, and Plasmodium inui, in Long‐Tailed Macaques (Macaca fascicularis) of Southern Thailand

Veterinary Medicine International, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Zoonotic malaria, caused by simian Plasmodium spp., poses a major public health challenge in Southeast Asia, including Thailand, where long‐tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis) serve as natural reservoirs. This study investigated the molecular prevalence and species identification of zoonotic simian Plasmodium spp.
