Lousy chicks: Chewing lice from the Imperial Shag, Leucocarbo atriceps. [PDF]
Int J Parasitol Parasites Wildl, 2017 Forty-one imperial shag chicks were sampled for lice during the breeding season of 2014 in Punta León, Argentina. We found 2 lice species, Pectinopygus turbinatus infesting the body and Piagetiella caputincisum present in the oral cavity of the birds. This constitutes the first host record for P.

Comparative body size relationships in pocket gophers and their chewing lice [PDF]
Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2000 Abstract In this paper, we use the method of independent contrasts to study body size relationships between pocket gophers and their chewing lice, a host-parasite system in which both host and parasite phylogenies are well studied. The evolution of body size of chewing lice appears to be dependent only on the body size of their hosts, which confirms ...

Diversity of lice and flea- and lice-borne pathogens in free-ranging dogs in Uzbekistan. [PDF]
Med Vet EntomolLice (Trichodectes canis, Linognathus africanus and Bovicola bovis) and fleas were collected from dogs across five regions of Uzbekistan and subjected to molecular analysis. Molecular screening detected Dipylidium caninum and Bartonella spp. in fleas, while Rickettsia spp. were identified in both fleas and lice.

An interdisciplinary approach to improving conservation outcomes for parasites. [PDF]
Conserv BiolAbstract Parasites represent a significant proportion of Earth's biodiversity and play important roles in the ecology and biology of ecosystems and hosts, making them an important target for conservation. Despite increasing calls to prioritize protection for parasites in the academic literature, they remain undervalued and underrepresented in global ...

Cophylogenetic relationships between penguins and their chewing lice [PDF]
Journal of Evolutionary Biology, 2006 Abstract It is generally thought that the evolution of obligate parasites should be linked intimately to the evolution of their hosts and that speciation by the hosts should cause speciation of their parasites. The penguins and their chewing lice present a rare opportunity to examine codivergence between a complete host order and its ...

To the fauna of chewing lice (Insecta: Phthiraptera) of birds (Aves: Falconiformes, Strigiformes) in the Lower Don region, Russia [PDF]
Кавказский энтомологический бюллетень, 2018 The fauna of chewing lice of raptors is poorly studied in Russia. In the present study, we addressed the fauna of chewing lice of raptors based on material from 22 species (Falconiformes, Strigiformes) collected in the vicinity of Rostov-on-Don in 2001 ...
