Comparisons of host specificity in feather louse genera (Insecta: Phthiraptera: Philopteridae) parasitizing gulls (Aves: Laridae: Larus).
Data from gene sequences and morphological structures were collected for the gull feather lice, Saemundssonia lari, Quadraceps punctatus, and Q. ornatus, parasitizing Larus crassirostris and L. schistisagus. Saemundssonia lari was collected from both gull species, and no detectable morphological and genetic differences were found between lice collected from the two different hosts. In contrast,...
متن کاملLouse (Insecta: Phthiraptera) mitochondrial 12S rRNA secondary structure is highly variable.
Lice are ectoparasitic insects hosted by birds and mammals. Mitochondrial 12S rRNA sequences obtained from lice show considerable length variation and are very difficult to align. We show that the louse 12S rRNA domain III secondary structure displays considerable variation compared to other insects, in both the shape and number of stems and loops. Phylogenetic trees constructed from tree edit ...
متن کاملChewing lice (Phthiraptera) on chickens (Gallus gallus) from small backyard flocks in the eastern part of the Czech Republic.
One hundred and sixty chickens (Gallus gallus) from 31 small, private backyard flocks in the eastern part of the Czech Republic were examined for chewing lice (Phthiraptera: Amblycera, Ischnocera). At least one species of chewing lice was found on every bird examined. Seven species of chewing lice were identified in all; they had the following prevalences and mean intensities: Goniocotes gallin...
متن کاملMolecular systematics of Goniodidae (Insecta: Phthiraptera).
The higher level phylogenetic relationships within the avian feather lice (Insecta: Phthiraptera: Ischnocera) are extremely problematic. Here we investigate the relationships of 1 family (Goniodidae), sometimes recognized as distinct within Ischnocera, using parsimony and likelihood analyses of nuclear and mitochondrial DNA sequences. These data support monophyly for a restricted definition of ...
متن کاملToxicity of Five Herbal Extracts against Head Louse (Pediculus Humanus Capitis De Geer.: Phthiraptera) in Vitro
Head lice infestation caused by Pediculus humanus capitis De Geer. (Phthiraptera) is one of the most important public health problem in children worldwide. Currently, head lice resistance to chemical pediculicide are increasing, thus new alternative pediculicides from herb or plant are needed for head lice treatment. The aim of this study were to evaluate toxicity of five herbal extracts from A...
