Evolution of the Neopsylla hongyangensis Mitogenome: Insights Into the Mitogenomic Evolution of the Orders Siphonaptera and the Phthiraptera [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
The evidence that parasitic animals exhibit elevated mitogenomic evolution rates is inconsistent and limited to Arthropoda. Neopsylla hongyangensis Li, Bai et Chen, 1986 (Siphonaptera: Ctenophthalmidae) feeds on the host's blood and is an important ...

New mitogenomic evidence for the phylogeny of Siphonaptera: insights from Callopsylla dolabris and Oropsylla silantiewi [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
As important vectors of infectious diseases such as plague, fleas require accurate classification and phylogenetic analysis, which are essential for public health prevention and control.

Non-Invaginated Wing Primordia in Holometabolous Insects: First Report From Mecoptera. [PDF]

Evol Dev
We investigated wing primordium development in the scorpionfly Mavropanorpa japonica and present the first detailed histological description of a late‐forming, non‐invaginated wing primordium lacking a morphologically distinct peripodial epithelium in Mecoptera.

Plague Microbe Aggregation in the Organism of Fleas (Siphonaptera) with Different Vector Ability [PDF]

Проблемы особо опасных инфекций, 2012
The following factors have been used to characterize 12 species and subspecies of fleas (Siphonaptera) and plague microbe (Yersinia pestis subs. pestis): the proportion of fleas with “blocks”, “blockules” and their ratio, called the index of microbe ...

Morphological traits and mitogenome of Thaumapsylla breviceps orientalis endemic to China provide insight into the evolution of the order Siphonaptera [PDF]

Scientific Reports
The Thaumapsylla breviceps orientalis is endemic to China and exhibits extreme host specificity (monoxenous). This study reports the first mitogenome sequenced for the family Ischnopsyllidae and provides comprehensive analysis of both the morphological ...

Phylogeny and divergence time estimation of the subfamily Amphipsyllinae based on the Frontopsylla diqingensis mitogenome [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Fleas are primarily parasites of small mammals and serve as essential vectors of the transmission of plague. The subfamily Amphipsyllinae (Siphonaptera: Leptopsyllidae) consists of 182 species across 13 genera, widely distributed worldwide.
