Distribution of phoretic mites and lice in Pseudolynchia canariensis living on pigeons and the relationship with seasonality, carrier sex, plumage coloration and age of definitive hosts
Acta Trop. 2023 Nov 9:107068. doi: 10.1016/j.actatropica.2023.107068. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAmong the parasites, some groups that have a limited capacity for locomotion, such as mites and lice, the transmission is challenging to win. These ectoparasites disperse through direct contact between hosts or, in some cases, through phoresy. However, these processes are not well-documented in detail because they are difficult to observe and quantify. In the present study, the patterns of distribution of skin mites and phoretic lice on hippoboscid louse fly Pseudolynchia canariensis sampled from Columba livia were evaluated...

Lice DNA records the moment Europeans colonized the Americas
When it comes to investigating the human story, scientists tend to focus on clues in our ancestors’ bones and artifacts. The tiny, bloodsucking parasites that infest our scalps? Not so much. But a new study published today in PLOS ONE suggests the genetics of head lice can shed light on when and where groups of humans split and came together in the past. The authors present data suggesting European and American lice share a genetic affinity dating back to the European colonization of the Americas. Lice may even offer clues to ancient relationships not captured by human DNA or archaeological evid...

Establishing reliable DNA barcoding primers for jumping plant lice (Psylloidea, Hemiptera)
DNA Barcoding has proven to be a reliable method for rapid insect identification. The success of this method is based on the amplification of a specific region, the ‘Folmer’ barcode region at the 5´ start of t... (Source: BMC Research Notes)
