Assessment of the efficacy of a topical combination of fipronil-permethrin (Frontline Tri-Act®/Frontect®) against egg laying and adult emergence of the cat flea (Ctenocephalides felis) in dogs

Parasite, 2016
This study was conducted to assess the prevention of egg laying and the inhibition of the emergence of the cat flea (Ctenocephalides felis) resulting from the application of a combination of fipronil and permethrin (Frontline Tri-Act®/Frontect®, Merial ...

Putting Rodents at the Center of One Health Programs: A Narrative Synthesis

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Rodents link human, animal, and environmental health across diverse ecosystems. Rodent diversity underpins both zoonotic disease risk and ecosystem function. Environmental change reshapes rodent communities and spillover dynamics. Rodents act as reservoirs, amplifiers, and sentinels of emerging pathogens.

From Data to Knowledge to Wisdom: Lessons Learned From the Vancouver Rat Project

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
A synthesis of 15 years of research conducted by the Vancouver Rat Project revealed that: (1) Pathogen ecology within rat colonies is the result of complex interactions among rats, pathogens, and vectors. (2) Local and global population structures influence rat and pathogen ecology.

Larval character evolution in Holometabola (Insecta)

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Larvae, a novel type of immature stage, are a crucial innovation of the Holometabola. Larval features therefore provide key evidence for reconstructing evolutionary transformations in this megadiverse group. Here we present the first formal reconstruction of larval character evolution, using maximum parsimony and Bayesian ancestral‐state ...

The Biology and Ecology of Cat Fleas and Advancements in Their Pest Management: A Review

Insects, 2017
The cat flea Ctenocephalides felis felis (Bouché) is the most important ectoparasite of domestic cats and dogs worldwide. It has been two decades since the last comprehensive review concerning the biology and ecology of C. f.

Fungicide Non‐Target Effects Cause Reduced Sawfly Herbivory in Treated and Neighbouring Strawberry Plants

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Application of the fungicide Switch 62.5 WG in garden strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa), targeting Botrytis cinerea, reduced sawfly (Cladius spp.) herbivory by up to 94% and improved fruit quality. This non‐target effect also spilled over to neighbouring untreated plants, lowering damage by 46%.

A longitudinal study of avian pox in a small passerine, the Dunnock (Prunella modularis)

Ibis, EarlyView.
Long‐term, longitudinal studies of disease in wild bird populations are rare. Diseases are important determinants of bird survival and may spill‐over into other species including livestock and, in some cases, humans. Avian pox is a globally distributed disease, resulting from infection by viruses in the genus Avipoxvirus (APV).

Entomopathogenic fungi, Metarhizium anisopliae and Beauveria bassiana reduce the survival of Xenopsylla brasiliensis larvae (Siphonaptera: Pulicidae). [PDF]

, 2012
Entomopathogenic fungi, particularly those belonging to the genera Metarhizium and Beauveria have shown great promise as arthropod vector control tools. These agents, however, have not been evaluated against flea vectors of plague.
