Role of the Setae in an Ectoparasitic Seal Louse in Reducing Surface Drag: Numerical Modeling Approach

Advanced Theory and Simulations, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2025.
The seal louse Echinophthirius horridus has uniquely shaped setae that may reduce drag during its host's dives. Using numerical simulations, this study demonstrates that their natural inclination promotes vortex formation, minimizing friction and energy loss. These findings provide insights into biological surface adaptations and may inspire the design

Neandertal Cold Adaptation: Technological, Anatomical, and Physiological Responses to Cold Stress in One of Our Closest Fossil Relatives

American Journal of Human Biology, Volume 37, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Neandertals occupied western Eurasia for over 100 000 years, repeatedly enduring climates that ranged from seasonally cold to glacial. This paper reexamines the question of Neandertal cold adaptation using updated fossil, physiological, and archaeological evidence.

Analyzing Bacterial Communities in Pediculus humanus capitis

The FASEB Journal, 2015
Understanding the composition of the microbiome of human associated insects can shed light on the sources of potential human pathogens. The human head louse, Pediculus humanus capitis, is an obligate symbiont found in the hair of humans, especially children. It is known to harbor an obligate endosymbiont, Candidatus Reisia.

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 ...
