These black rats can transmit a wide variety of pathogens, including bacteria of the genus Bartonella, which can cause diseases in humans and animals. In Chile, no data are available identifying fleas from synanthropic rodents as Bartonella vectors. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of Bartonella spp. in the fleas of R. rattus in areas with different climate conditions and featuring different human population densities. Methods: In all, 174 fleas collected from 261 R. rattus captured from 30 localities with different human densities (cities, villages, and wild areas) across five hydrographic zones of Chile (hyper-arid, arid, semi-arid, sub-humid, and hyper-humid) were examined.

V ASQUEZ´ 1 1Departamento de Ciencias Ecologicas,´ IEB, Universidad de Chile, Santiago, Chile and 2Centro de Estudios Parasitologicos´ y de Vectores, CEPAVE (CCT La Plata-CONICET-UNLP), La Plata, Argentina Abstract. Fleas associated with small mammals from seven localities from northern and central Chile were assessed. We captured 352 small mammals belonging to 12 species from which we obtained 675 fleas belonging to 15 different species. The most frequently captured flea species were Neotyphloceras crassispina crassispina (n = 198) and N. chilensis (n = 175). High values of flea species richness and diversity were found in Fray Jorge National Park (NP), a north-central Chilean site, whereas the highest values of mean abundance (MA) and prevalence were found in three diverse sites that include Los Molles River, a high altitude site located in north- central Chile, Fray Jorge NP and Dichato, in south-central Chile. On the other hand, high values of flea richness and diversity were found on two rodent species, Abrothrix olivacea and A. longipilis, whereas the highest values of MA and prevalence were found on Oligoryzomys longicaudatus, A. longipilis and Phyllotis xanthopygus.A total of three new host recordings, nine new localities and nine new host species and locality recordings are reported. Also, this study represents the first known record of Tetrapsyllus (Tetrapsyllus) comis in Chile and the first ecological analysis of Neotyphloceras chilensis.

  • An Annotated Catalog of Primary Types of Siphonaptera in the National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution
    * An Annotated Catalog of Primary Types of Siphonaptera in the National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution NANCY E. ADAMS and ROBERT E. LEWIS I SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 560 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Folklife Studies Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.

  • Siphonaptera De La Costa Sur-Occidental De América (Primera Lista Y Distribución Zoo-Geografica)
    SIPHONAPTERA DE LA COSTA SUR-OCCIDENTAL DE AMÉRICA (PRIMERA LISTA Y DISTRIBUCIÓN ZOO-GEOGRAFICA) Por el Dr. ATILIO MACCHIAVELLO Epidemiólogo de Za Ojkina Sanitaria Panamericana Durante los trabajos epidemiológicos relacionados con la peste bubó- nica, el A. y sus colaboradores han examinado unas 500,000 pulgas durante los últimos 15 años, en Chile, Peru,” y Ecuador,* la mayor parte de origen murino, reduciendose la fauna pulida de las ratas domesti- cas a una docena de especies, a lo menos en la costa sur-occidental de América. Las recientes investigaciones sobre peste selvática y rural, en el Norte del Perú, han proporcionado la oportunidad de obtener roedores y pulgas diferentes de los que se acostumbraba examinar anteriormente. La dificultad en encontrar literatura entomológica hace creer oportuno resumir los nuevos hallazgos en relación a sifonápteros, en una lista tentativa de las especiesdescritas en la costa sur-occidental de América, algunas de las cuales pueden adquirir importancia futura como vectoras de peste. Hay escasezde informaciones sobre el genero Polygenis, que juega papel preponderante en la transmisi6n y manten- ción de la peste selvática en el foco recientemente descubierto en la frontera peruano-ecuatoriana. La lista que sigue no es total y las referencias son incompletas. Los autores que mencionan especies púlidas, no lo hacen con la precisión deseable respecto a huéspedes o sitios de recolección. Muchas de las clasificaciones no han sido realizadas por entornologos, ni por zoólogos. Asi, por ejemplo, las pulgas clasificadas en Ecuador como Ceratophyllus fasciatus probablemente corresponden a i?osopsyllus londiniensis, ya que la primera no se encuentra en ese pais.

ZooKeys 389: 1–7. doi: 10.3897/ zookeys.389.7042 Abstract Hectopsylla pulex Haller is documented for the first time from Cochise County, Arizona on the Lesser Long-nosed bat, Leptonycteris yerbabuenae Martinez and Villa (Phyllostomidae). This represents the first record of this flea on this Chiropteran Family. The most favorable site of attachment of H. pulex appears to be the head, particularly the ears and tragus. The potential interference of echolocation caused by flea attachment at or near the tragus is discussed in addition to host preferences and specialized morphological features. It is demonstrated that expansion of abdominal segments during egg development is a function of mechanical design and not neosomy such as occurs in Tunga monositus Barnes and Radovsky, Neotunga euloidea Smit and some vermipsyllid fleas.

  • Neosomes of Tungid Fleas on Wild and Domestic Animals
    Parasitol Res (2014) 113:3517–3533 DOI 10.1007/s00436-014-4081-8 REVIEW Neosomes of tungid fleas on wild and domestic animals Pedro Marcos Linardi & Daniel Moreira de Avelar Received: 2 June 2014 /Accepted: 11 August 2014 /Published online: 21 August 2014 # The Author(s) 2014. This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract Tunga is the most specialized genus among the Introduction Siphonaptera because adult females penetrate into the skin of their hosts and, after mating and fertilization, undergo Adult fleas (Siphonaptera) are obligate hematophagous hypertrophy, forming an enlarged structure known as the ectoparasites that infest humans and wild and domestic neosome. In humans and other warm-blooded animals, animals. There are approximately 3,000 species and sub- neosomes cause tungiasis, which arises due to the action of species of fleas included in 238 genera and 15 families opportunistic agents. Although its effects on humans and worldwide (Lewis 1998). Tungidae is the most specialized domestic animals are well described in the literature, little is family in that the females of the genera Tunga Jarocki known about the impact of tungiasis on wild animals. This (Tunginae) penetrate the skin of their hosts (Hopkins and review focuses on the morphology, taxonomy, geographical Rothschild 1953; Linardi and Guimarães 2000), and after distribution, hosts, prevalence, sites of attachment, and impact mating, the gravid females undergo hypertrophy, becoming of tungid neosomes on wild and domestic animals. Because neosomes (Audy et al. 1972) in spite of the genus neosomes are the most characteristic form of the genus Tunga Neotunga Smit of the family Pulicidae also present pene- and also the form most frequently found in hosts, they are here trating females.

  • Hidden Dichromatism in the Burrowing Parrot (Cyanoliseus Patagonus) As Revealed by Spectrometric Colour Analysis
    2009Hornero 24(1):47–55, 2009 DICHROMATISM IN THE BURROWING PARROT 47 HIDDEN DICHROMATISM IN THE BURROWING PARROT (CYANOLISEUS PATAGONUS) AS REVEALED BY SPECTROMETRIC COLOUR ANALYSIS JUAN F.

Bonn, Germany. 3 [email protected] ABSTRACT.— Bird colour perception differs fundamentally from that of humans. Birds have more cone types in the retina, including UV or violet cones, which enable them to perceive a wider spectral range. Thus, human colour perception can be deceiving when assessing functional aspects of bird plumage coloration, such as the intensity of sexual selection. In this study we measured reflectance spectra of different plumage regions of male and female Burrowing Parrot (Cyanoliseus patagonus) individuals. Although not obvious to human eyes, spectrometry revealed that adults are sexually dichromatic. Plumage regions with structure-based (blue) and structure-psittacofulvin pigment-based (green) coloration differed in achromatic brightness. In contrast, the psittacofulvin- based (red) region differed in spectral shape between the sexes. Thus, Burrowing Parrot is among the growing number of bird species which were formerly classed as sexually monochro- matic based on human vision, but which are actually sexually dichromatic. KEY WORDS: Burrowing Parrot, Patagonia, psittacofulvin-based coloration, psittacofulvins, sex differenc- es, sexual dichromatism, structural coloration. RESUMEN. DICROMATISMO SEXUAL OCULTO EN EL LORO BARRANQUERO (CYANOLISEUS PATAGONUS) REVELADO POR MEDIO DE ANÁLISIS ESPECTROMÉTRICOS.— La percepción del color por parte de las aves difiere esencialmente de la de los humanos.

  • Canids: Status Survey and Conservation Action Plan
    IUCN/Species Survival Commission Foxes, Wolves, Jackals and Dogs Canids: Status Survey and Conservation Action Plan The Species Survival Commission (SSC) is one of six volunteer commissions of IUCN – The World Conservation Union, a union of sovereign states, government agencies and non- governmental organisations. IUCN has three basic conservation objectives: to secure the conservation of nature, and especially of biological diversity, as an essential foundation for the future; to ensure that where the Earth’s natural resources are used this is done in a wise, Canids: Foxes, Wolves, equitable and sustainable way; and to guide the development of human communities towards ways of life that are both of good quality and in enduring harmony with other components of the biosphere. Jackals and Dogs A volunteer network comprised of some 8,000 scientists, field researchers, government officials and conservation leaders from nearly every country of the world, the SSC membership is an unmatched source of information about biological diversity and its conservation. As such, SSC Edited by Claudio Sillero-Zubiri, Michael Hoffmann members provide technical and scientific counsel for conservation projects throughout the world and serve as resources to governments, international conventions and conservation and David W. Macdonald organisations. IUCN/SSC Action Plans assess the conservation status of species and their habitats, and specifies conservation priorities. The series is one of the world’s most authoritative sources of Survey and Conservation Action
