Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.Mortality for diatomaceous earth was observed as early as 2 h after exposure with 50% and 90% mortality at 3.5 and 4.6 h (LT50 and LT90, respectively) for Musca domestica. The LT50 and LT90 increased when the size of the fly species increased (M. domestica to Cochliomyia macellaria to Sarcophaga bullata) and increased for all three from 50 to 70 ...

Serosurveillance of Leishmania infantum in Zoo‐Kept Animals in Spain
Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 73, Issue 1, Page 65-73, February 2026.ABSTRACT Introduction Leishmaniosis is a sand fly‐borne zoonosis mainly caused by Leishmania infantum in Europe. Exposure to this protozoan has been widely reported in many domestic and wild species. However, epidemiological surveys evaluating the circulation of L. infantum in zoo‐kept animals remain limited. This large‐scale study aims to evaluate the

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT The present study assessed the leishmanicidal activity of 4‐nerolidylcatechol (4‐NC) (1) isolated from Piper peltatum leaves against promastigotes and amastigotes of Leishmania amazonensis, L. braziliensis, and L. infantum. The plant was fractionated, leading to the isolation and chemical identification of 4‐NC (1). Biochemical techniques were

Amphibian Strategies Against Attacks by Flies: Host‐Specificity and Threats
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.Species interactions between Diptera flies and amphibians play a significant role in tropical ecosystems, but their ecology and evolution remain understudied. This review explores the costs flies impose on amphibians, such as pathogen transmission and disruption of communication systems, and highlights the evolutionary strategies employed by both ...
