Abstract Genetic analyses of host‐specific parasites can elucidate the evolutionary histories and biological features of their hosts. Here, we used population‐genomic analyses of ectoparasitic seal lice (Echinophthirius horridus) to shed light on the postglacial history of seals in the Arctic Ocean and the Baltic Sea region.

Studies on Pediculus. I. The copulatory apparatus and the process of copulation inPediculus humanus
Owing to the active interest now being taken in all that concerns lice and their habits, especially in connection with the war, it seems expedient to forestall a fuller publication, now in preparation, by giving an account of the copulatory apparatus and the curious process of copulation inPediculus humanusLinn.

Resilin in Insect Flight Systems
The development of resilin‐based biomaterials for medical and industrial applications has been constantly advanced in recent years. Resilin is a rubber‐like protein that occurs in arthropod exoskeleton structures. In the insect flight system, its function depends on its overall location, protein sequence and mixture with stiffer exoskeleton components.

Avoiding extinction by migration: The case of the head louse [PDF]
The possibility of spreading by migration, colonizing new spatial domains suitable for development and reproduction, can substantially relieve a biological population from the risk of extinction. By means of a realistic computational model based on empirical data, we study this phenomenon for the human head louse, Pediculus humanus capitis.

Abstract Diatoms are key components of freshwater ecosystems and are regularly used for paleolimnological reconstructions, in which defining species optima and tolerances is fundamental for interpreting assemblage shifts in a sediment record. Here, we examined responses of diatoms across three major environmental gradients—dissolved inorganic carbon ...

Pediculosis palpebrarum initially diagnosed as blepharitis
Pediculosis is an infestation of lice. Eyelid involvement is uncommon, but can be caused by pediculus humanus capitis (head louse), rarely by pediculus humanus corporis (body louse) and commonly by phthirus pubis (pubic louse).
