MANY ectoparasitic insects are characterized by one or more regular rows of closely set, large stout spines. These rows of spines are termed combs, or ctenidia, and have evolved independently in fleas (Siphonaptera), bat flies (Nycteribiidae), bat bugs (Polyctenidae), and in the beaver beetle Platypsyllus.

Vaccination against ectoparasites

Parasitology, 2006
Ectoparasites of livestock are of great economic and social importance but their effective control remains difficult. The feasibility of vaccination as a novel control measure was established over a decade ago with the commercial release of a recombinant vaccine against the cattle tickBoophilus microplus. Since then, research has continued on ticks and
