High impact information on Mallophaga

  • Analysis of EF1 alpha and COI sequences did not recover monophyly of Ischnocera, but these genes provided little support for ischnoceran paraphyly because homoplasy is high among the divergent taxa included in this study [1].
  • In this study we test the monophyly of Ischnocera using sequences of portions of three different genes: two nuclear (EF1 alpha and 18S) and one mitochondrial (COI) [1].
  • Dermatological and parasitological evaluation of infestations with chewing lice (Werneckiella equi) on horses and treatment using imidacloprid [2].
  • Effective treatment and control of biting lice, Felicola subrostratus (Nitzsch in Burmeister, 1838), on cats using fipronil formulations [3].
  • Two louse (Phthiraptera) species were collected: Colpocephalum turbinatum (Amblycera), with 53 host species, and Degeeriella regalis (Ischnocera), with 10 host species, although B. galapagoensis was the only known Galapagos host [4].
 

Biological context of Mallophaga

 

Associations of Mallophaga with chemical compounds

  • Cypermethrin pour-on for control of the sheep body louse (Damalinia ovis) [6].
  • Evaluation of the efficacy of fipronil formulations in the treatment and control of biting lice, Trichodectes canis (De Geer, 1778) on dogs [7].
  • The four chlorfenapyr formulations examined provided 100% control of both the nymphal and adult stages of naturally acquired Bovicola bovis (L.) on cattle up to 35 days after application [8].
  • Starved Bovicola bovis were confined until they died, with dried cow blood, dried cow serum, primary hair, secondary hair and calf skin scales stained with 1% toluidine blue [9].
  • Increased control of the sheep biting louse Bovicola (Damalinia) ovis with deltamethrin formulated in a fractionated wool grease carrier [10].
 

Gene context of Mallophaga

  • The authors characterize in females of Bovicola bovis the total proteins of this species by means of SDS-page determining the R(mb), Rx, Rf and mW of each protein in particular and studying finally the number of protein bands in function with their mW [11].
  • The lice Damalinia antidorcus, Linognathus antidorcitis and L. bedfordi were present on animals in the Transvaal and the western Cape Province [12].
