Louse flies on birds of Baja California.
Louse flies were collected from 401 birds of 32 species captured in autumn of 1996 in Baja California Sur (Mexico). Only one louse fly species (Microlynchia pusilla) was found. It occurred in four of the 164 common ground doves (Columbina passerina) collected. This is a new a host species for this louse fly.
متن کاملCryptic ecology among host generalist Campylobacter jejuni in domestic animals
Homologous recombination between bacterial strains is theoretically capable of preventing the separation of daughter clusters, and producing cohesive clouds of genotypes in sequence space. However, numerous barriers to recombination are known. Barriers may be essential such as adaptive incompatibility, or ecological, which is associated with the opportunities for recombination in the natural ha...
متن کاملIncidence of Louse-flies (Hippoboscidae) in Some Alaskan Birds
Information was gathered on'the incidence of hippoboscid louse-flies (Diptera, Hippoboscidae) on passerine birds in interior Alaska during 1987. Other authors have discussed louse-fly infestations in birds, but always in areas with less severe climatic conditions. The hippoboscid species found (Omithomya bequaertl} was described by Maa (1969) as a new species, and few data are available on abun...
متن کاملComparisons 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,...

Environ. Entomo!. 26(5): 1149-1154 (1997) ABSTRACT Pselldacteon phorids that parasitize the red imported fire ant, Solenopsis invicta Buren, inSouthAmericaare not present in the introduced range ofthispest speciesin the United States. Sequential host specificity tests were conducted with 4 South American Pselldacteon species, P. litoralis Borgmeier, P. wasmanni (Schmitz), P. triCllspis Borgmeie...
