Birds in arid regions have depauperate louse communities: Climate change implications? [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Environmental factors are known to affect the distribution of free‐living organisms. We surveyed parasitic lice (Insecta: Phthiraptera) of 500 birds and found that parasite diversity is also influenced by the environment. We found that birds in arid Utah had substantially lower louse diversity (prevalence, abundance, and richness) than birds in humid ...

Phthiraptera

, 2001
21 Phthiraptera Tarsi are one­ or two­segmented. A claw pad, dissimilar from that of ephemeropterans, is present in some representatives of Phthiraptera (Amblycera, Ischnocera part.) (Fig. 3i). Euplantulae which allow attachment to smooth surfaces are also present in some mallophagan species.

Characterization of the dynamic microbiome evolution across thrips species

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Comprehensive survey of the microbiome in thrips. The dominant bacterial genera found in thrips include intracellular ones, such as Wolbachia and Spiroplasma, and extracellular ones, including Serratia, Pantoea, and Acinetobacter. We isolated and sequenced high‐quality genomes of two dominant symbionts, Pantoea dispersa and Serratia marcescens.
