Island syndrome, previously established for isolation process of insular vertebrates\&$\#$39; populations, have been adapted to insular parasites communities, termed parasite island syndromes. In this work, were studied for the first time the insular syndromes for nidicolous ectoparasites of the bird species, Turdus merula, Sylvia atricapilla, Fringilla coelebs and Erithacus rubecula from Azores and the mainland Portugal. Flea species were only recorded on Azorean birds, namely Dasypsyllus gallinulae and Ctenocephalides felis felis, known as not host-specific parasites. In the absence of shared flea species between mainland and islands birds, a comparison among our fleas prevalence to Azores Islands and mainland fleas prevalence, recorded to others European studies, showed that Azorean host populations undergo higher prevalence than the mainland one. This result was consistent with parasite island syndromes predictions recorded to ectoparasites, hippoboscid flies and chewing lice, that fleas have higher prevalence on the Azores Islands compared to mainland Portugal. However, our results provide a new perspective to parasite island syndromes assumptions, namely in the context of nidicolous ectoparasites that spend only brief periods on the hosts\&$\#$39; body.

PaPER in Russian : Фауна пухоедов (Mallophaga) птиц Воронежской области. Подотряд Ischnocera

Инвентаризация коллекционного материала, собранного в 1981\–2021 гг. в Воронежской области, позволила выявить 45 видов пухоедов из 20 родов и 2 семейств подотряда Ischnocera, паразитирующих на птицах. Впервые для региона указано 22 вида Ischnocera: Brueelia cyclothorax (Burmeister, 1838), B. chrysomytris (Blagoveshtchensky, 1940), B. straminea (Denny, 1842), Philopterus troglodytis Fedorenko, 1986, Ph. turdi (Denny, 1842), Ph. atratus (Nitzsch, 1818), Ph. excisus (Nitzsch, 1818), Ph. ocellatus (Scopoli, 1763), Cuclotogaster heterogrammicus (Nitzsch, 1866), Cummingsiella aurea
Hopkins, 1949, Rhynonirmus helvolus (Burmeister, 1838), Penenirmus auritus (Scopoli, 1763), Capraiella subcuspidata (Burmeister, 1838), Degeeriella regalis (Giebel, 1866), Columbicola claviformis (Denny, 1842), C. bacillus (Giebel, 1866), Strigiphilus cursor (Burmeister, 1838), Coloceras liviae (Tendeiro, 1974), Campanulotes bidentatus (Scopoli, 1763), C. drosti Eichler, 1950, C. compar (Burmeister, 1838), Goniocotes microthorax (Stephens, 1829). Некоторые виды пухоедов обнаружены как на типичных, так и на случайных хозяевах (B. borini \– на домовом и полевом воробьях, B. varia \– на граче, C. uncinosus \– на галке, Ph. montani \– на домовом воробье, C. unicinosus \– на серой вороне и галке). Связи некоторых видов птиц с нетипичными видами пухоедов чаще отмечались в городской среде при высокой численности и концентрации хозяев в подходящих для гнездования стациях. С учетом исследованных ранее пухоедов из подотряда Amblycera, а также Ischnocera \– паразитов млекопитающих фауна пухоедов Воронежской области на сегодняшний день насчитывает 80 видов из 35 родов.

An inventory of the material collected in 1981\–2021 from birds in the Voronezh Region revealed 45 chewing-lice species from 20 genera belonging to two families of the suborder Ischnocera. Twenty-two species of Ischnocera were detected in the region for the first time: Brueelia cyclothorax (Burmeister, 1838), B. chrysomytris (Blagoveshtchensky, 1940), B. straminea (Denny, 1842), Philopterus troglodytis Fedorenko, 1986, Ph. turdi (Denny, 1842), Ph. atratus (Nitzsch, 1818), Ph. excisus (Nitzsch, 1818), Ph. ocellatus (Scopoli, 1763), Cuclotogaster heterogrammicus (Nitzsch, 1866), Cummingsiella aurea Hopkins, 1949, Rhynonirmus helvolus (Burmeister, 1838), Penenirmus auritus (Scopoli, 1763), Capraiella subcuspidata (Burmeister, 1838), Degeeriella regalis (Giebel, 1866), Columbicola claviformis (Denny, 1842), C. bacillus (Giebel, 1866),
Strigiphilus cursor (Burmeister, 1838), Coloceras liviae (Tendeiro, 1974), C. bidentatus (Scopoli, 1763), C. drosti Eichler, 1950, Campanulotes compar (Burmeister, 1838), Goniocotes microthorax (Stephens, 1829). Besides typical hosts, some species of
chewing lice were found on occasional ones (B. borini \– on house sparrow and Eurasian tree sparrow, B. varia \– on rook, C. uncinosus \– on western jackdaw, Ph. montani \– on house sparrow, C. unicinosus \– on hooded crow and western jackdaw). Associations of some bird species with occasional chewing lice species were usually observed in urban environments with a high abundance and concentration of hosts. Together with previously listed species of the suborder Amblycera and mammal-parasitic Ischnocera, the total checklist of chewing lice of the Voronezh Region currently comprises 80 species from 35 genera.

Background: Turkey is home to various resident and migratory wild bird species. The aim of the present study was to investigate the ectoparasites found on 188 injured or rescued resident and migratory wild birds from Bursa and surroundings between 2015 and 2019.

Methods: Sampled birds were examined for different ectoparasites and all of the collected parasites were placed into tubes containing 70\% ethyl alcohol. After mounting onto slides or fixing onto a plate, each parasite was identified to species using a light or stereo microscope.

Result: Results revealed that 88 (46.8\%) of the examined wild birds were infested with one or two of 3 different species of ectoparasites. The species identified were 38 lice, three ticks and two flies. The lice were highly prevalent (40.4\%) species than the flies (2.1\%) and ticks (2.1\%). The results also first geographically documented the lice and ked fly species as follows, with additional new host records: Fulicoffula gallinula and Pseudomenapon pilosum in the common moorhens (Gallinula chloropus); Ciconiphilus decimfasciatus in the grey heron (Ardea cinerea); Saemundssonia clayae in the Eurasian woodcock (Scolopax rusticola); Ardeicola ixobrychae in the common little bittern (Ixobrychus minutus) and the ked fly as Ornithophila metallica in the Eurasian magpies (Pica pica) in Turkey. The study results provided valuable data on the ectoparasites living on migratory and resident bird species during their migration throughout northwest Turkey. Further research on the related pathogens that these ectoparasites harbor is in need.

The prevalence, number of species, and individual numbers of chewing lice found on birds may vary depending on different biotic and abiotic factors. Studies detecting the effects of different conditions on chewing lice were carried out generally on bird species belonging to one order or family. In addition, there can be conflict concerning the ecological effects on chewing lice. In this study, 2101 individuals of fifty-nine different bird species were evaluated to identify the habitat, food guild, migration behavior, weight, wingspan, and length effects on chewing lice prevalence, species richness, and abundance. The highest prevalence was detected in urban-dwelling bird species. The highest lice richness was recorded on migratory bird species living in wetlands. Furthermore, there was a positive correlation between wingspan and lice species. The most abundant lice were detected on resident wetland-dwelling bird species. It is thought that detailed studies should be carried out to explain not only host habitat effect on prevalence and abundance but also host body length and wingspan on the abundance and richness.

The present study focuses on the diversity of ectoparasites and their pathogens in birds (Passeriformes and Columbiformes) species in Bouinan region (Blida,Algeria).To detect ectoparasites potential vectors and reservoirs of bird\&$\#$39;s pathogens, the arthropods are researched and collected from different bird nests; Passeriformes; the Europe Greenfinch (Carduelis Chloris); the black robin (Turdus merula); hybrid sparrow (Passer dmoesticus x Passer hispaniolensis) and Columbiformes rock dove (Columba livia) in Bouinan region (Blida). the present study permitted to record about 701 arthropods species collected from 40 nests. It consisted of 6 mite species with a dominance of Ornithonyssus bursa (58.5\%) followed by Dermanyssus gallinae (11.4\%) and a single species of lice Menacanthus stramineus 11.8 \% respectively on the one hand, and on the other hand, we noticed the complete absence of fleas and ticks in these 40 analyzed nests. It should also be noted here that Mites are used as epidemiological tools to detect the pathogen by sensitive PCR molecular biology. The PCR results showed that Dermanyssus gallinae and Menacanthus stramineus are vectors of Borealis in the study area with Shells sparrows and Europe greenfinch.

Abstract:

An updated checklist of chewing lice (Phthiraptera: Mallophaga, Amblycera) of the Voronezh Region was compiled based on an inventory of the entomological material collected in 1976-2021. It contains 30 species of chewing lice of the suborder Amblycera.
They belong to two families and 12 genera. Among them, 16 species, \– Meromenopon incisum (Giebel, 1874), Trinoton querquedulae (Linnaeus, 1758), Austromenopon icterum (Burmeister, 1838), Menacanthus alaudae (Schrank, 1776), M. pici (Denny, 1842),
Colpocephalum fregili Denny, 1842, C. turbinatum Plaget, 1880, Myrsidea cucullaris (Nitzsch, 1818), M. isostoma (Nitzsch, 1866), M. indivisa (Nitzsch, 1866), M. troglodyti (Denny, 1842), Bonomiella columbae Emerson, 1957, B. concii Eichler, 1947, Hohorstiella lata (Piaget, 1880), H. modesta (Ansari, 1951), Ricinus serratus Durrant, 1906 \– are registered in the Voronezh Region for the first time. Genera Menacanthus and Myrsidea comprise the highest number of species. Most chewing lice species were associated with
their typical host-species. However, in urban ecosystems of the region, several Amblycera species (Menacanthus agilis, M.\  gonophaeus, Colpocephalum turbinatum) were retrieved from occasional host species

Existe evidencia de que las plantaciones de pino de Chile central albergan poblaciones de fauna silvestre. Esto implica que durante la cosecha de las plantaciones, muchos individuos deban relocalizarse, present\ándose altas densidades de algunas especies en los parches remanentes de bosque nativo, aumentando la probabilidad de transmisi\ón de enfermedades. Se describe una asociaci\ón positiva entre el tama\ño poblacional del hospedero y la prevalencia y abundancia de par\ásitos de transmisi\ón directa. En este estudio usando a Elaenia albiceps como modelo, se prob\ó la hip\ótesis de que la densidad poblacional de las aves presentes en parches de bosque nativo se correlaciona positivamente con su carga ectoparasitaria. Adem\ás se caracteriz\ó la fauna ectoparasitaria de aves Passeriformes; f\ío-f\ío (E. albiceps), jilguero (Sporagra barbata), zorzal (Turdus falcklandii) y rayadito (Aphrastura spinicauda). El estudio se llev\ó a cabo en siete fragmentos de bosque nativo insertos en matriz forestal en la regi\ón del Maule y del B\ío-B\ío, durante noviembre y febrero en 2012-2013 y 2013-2014. En cada sitio se estim\ó la abundancia de aves a trav\és de puntos de conteos y se caracteriz\ó el h\ábitat. Las aves se capturaron mediante redes nieblas y se anillaron. El muestreo de ectopar\ásitos se realiz\ó inspeccionando cada ave durante cinco minutos. En el laboratorio se procesaron las muestras y se identificaron los individuos hasta el menor nivel taxon\ómico posible. Luego se procedi\ó a cuantificar cada morfotipo y se calcul\ó la prevalencia, abundancia media e intensidad media. Para responder la hip\ótesis se realiz\ó una correlaci\ón de Pearson entre las variables de carga ectoparasitaria de \ácaros plum\ícolas y piojos; y la densidad poblacional de f\ío-f\ío. Luego usando un modelo lineal generalizado (GLM) se evalu\ó que variables predec\ían la abundancia de \ácaros y piojos. Se captur\ó un total de 134 individuos de f\ío-f\ío, 44 de jilguero, 39 de zorzal y 57 de rayadito. En el f\ío-f\ío se identificaron Anisophyllodes elaeniae, Trouessartia elaeniae, Proctophyllodes musicus, tritoninfas de Analges sp., de Calcealges sp., y posiblemente de Berladectes neotropicus. Se registr\ó solo una especie de piojo; Tyranniphilopterus delicatulus. Los jilgueros presentaron los \ácaros Strelkoviacarus critesi, Proctophyllodes spini, y los piojos Philopterus roehreri y Tyranniphilopterus delicatulus. En los zorzales se identificaron dos especies de \ácaros; Proctophyllodes musicus y Tyrannidectes falcklandicus y dos especies de piojos; Brueelia magellanica y Philopterus sp. No se logr\ó identificar dos morfotipos de \ácaros. Los rayaditos no presentaron infestaci\ón por piojos. En cuanto a los \ácaros se identificaron cuatro g\éneros: Analges sp., Trouessartia sp., Metapterodectes sp., Platyacarus sp. La principal conclusi\ón de este trabajo es que a pesar de que se esperaba una asociaci\ón positiva entre la densidad poblacional y las variables de carga ectoparasitaria, la relaci\ón encontrada fue inversa y con un alto nivel de significancia estad\ística. Las covariables morfol\ógicas y ambientales significativas del modelo no entregan mayor explicaci\ón sobre esta tendencia encontrada. La relaci\ón par\ásito-hospedero es compleja y hay muchos factores que influyen en \ésta, por lo que es necesario profundizar en cuanto a los factores propios del hospedero y del par\ásito que afectan dicha relaci\ón, as\í como las variables ambientales.

Abstract: There is evidence that pine plantations in central Chile are habitat for populations of several wildlife species. This implies that during clear-cutting process, many individuals may be forced to relocate, generating overcrowding of some species in the remaining native forest fragments. This could increase the likelihood of disease transmission. A positive association between size of host population and parasite prevalence and abundance of direct transmitted parasites is described. Using white-crested elaenia (Elaenia albiceps) as model, the hypothesis, that the population density of birds in remnants of native forest is positively correlated with the ectoparasitic load, was tested. Moreover, the ectoparasitic fauna of white-crested elaenia, black-chinned siskin (Sporagra barbata), austral thrush (Turdus falcklandii) and thorn-tailed rayadito (Aphrastura spinicauda) was characterized. The study was conducted in seven fragments of native forest remnants rounded by pine plantation in the region of Maule and B\ío-B\ío, during November and February in 2012-2013 and 2013-2014. At each site habitat was characterized and bird population density was estimated through point counts. Birds were captured using mist nets and banded. Ectoparasites sampling was performed inspecting each bird for five minutes. In the laboratory, samples were processed and individuals were classified to the lowest possible taxonomical level. Then, each morphotype was quantified and prevalence, mean abundance and mean intensity was calculated. To test the hypothesis, Pearson correlations were performed between mites and lice load variables; and the population density of white-crested elaenia. Using a generalized linear model (GLM), variables which could predict the abundance of mites and lice, were evaluated. A total of 134 individuals of white-crested elaenia, 44 black-chinned siskin, 39 austral thrush and 57 thorn-tailed rayadito, were captured. The white-crested elaenia presented Anisophyllodes elaeniae, Trouessartia elaeniae, Proctophyllodes musicus, tritonymphs of Analges sp., Calcealges sp., and possibly Berladectes neotropicus. Only one species of lice was recorded: Tyranniphilopterus delicatulus. Mites of flack-chinned siskin were identified as Strelkoviacarus critesi, Proctophyllodes spini, and lice as Philopterus roehreri and Tyranniphilopterus delicatulus. Thrushes presented two species of mites: Proctophyllodes musicus and Tyrannidectes falcklandicus and two species of lice; Brueelia magellanica and Philopterus sp. Two morphotypes of mites could not be identified. The thorn-tailed rayaditos showed no lice infestation. Four genera of feather mites were identified: Analges sp., Trouessartia sp., Metapterodectes sp., Platyacarus sp. The main conclusion of this work is that, althougha positive association between population density and ectoparasitic load variables was expected, the inverse relationship was found with a high level of statistical significance. However, the morphological and environmental covariates that were used in model do not provide further explanation to this trend. Host-parasite relationships are complex with many factors that influence it. Therefore, it is necessary to further study different specific factors of the host and parasite affecting this relationship, as well as environmental variables.

Seven species of Turdidae (Aves: Passeriformes) in Manitoba, Canada were examined for chewing lice (Phthiraptera) in 1993\–2019: Turdus migratorius (N = 570), Catharus ustulatus (N = 135), Catharus guttatus (N = 49), Catharus minimus (N = 12), Catharus fuscescens (N = 1), Sialia sialis (N = 4), and Sialia currucoides (N = 3). Five species of lice on T. migratorius had a prevalence of 24.0\% and a mean intensity of 16.7. Overall prevalence for lice on C. ustulatus, C. guttatus, and C. minimus was 25.0\%\–59.2\%; mean intensity was 7.0\–23.3. On S. sialis, the prevalence was 50.0\%; mean intensity was 10.0. No lice infested C. fuscescens or S. currucoides. Infestation parameters for each louse\–host combination are provided. Louse infestations were highly aggregated. Female lice were more prevalent than males, especially for Ricinus elongatus (Phthiraptera: Amblycera: Ricinidae) infesting T. migratorius (eight males; 81 females), or there was no significant deviation from 50:50. Infestation parameters were higher for adult T. migratorius than for juveniles or feathered chicks but not significantly so. Mean intensity was greater in spring than in fall. Louse abundance was lower than on hosts of similar size in Manitoba and lower than on thrushes in other studies.

Many organisms live in or on birds, with arthropods being the best studied ones. Ectosymbiotic arthropods may parasitise birds by feeding upon blood or feathers, thereby causing injury or competing for essential resources. Nevertheless, ectosymbionts sometimes cause no adverse effect to birds because they consume only excess preening oil, debris and microorganisms on feathers. The influence of these ectosymbionts on host body condition is still poorly understood, especially for species living in one of the most endangered biomes, the Atlantic Forest in South America. We tested for the relationships between ectosymbionts and host\’s morphological traits: flight muscle condition, mass index and feather growth rate. We inspected the body surface of 282 individual birds of 45 understory-dwelling species looking for ectosymbionts and estimated vane-dwelling feather mite load in their remiges. We calculated ectosymbiont prevalence and mean infestation intensity in 193 individual birds from 11 species. In seven species (n = 106 individual birds), we tested for the relationship between ectosymbionts and morphological traits using generalised linear mixed models. We found a negative relationship between the presence of ectoparasites and the host pectoral muscle condition, supporting the parasitic nature of tissue-feeding symbionts. Nevertheless, we found no relationship between vane-dwelling feather mite loads and hosts\’ morphological traits, which supports the hypothesis of likely commensalism between these organisms.

Poster

The present work intend to expose the results of a 9 year long parasitological survey on wild avian fauna. The main goal is to update the checklist of the Italian fauna for the Phthiraptera order with the first signalement of Myrsidea quadrimaculata in Italy. Moreover in this publication we try to explain the differences found in prevalence from species specific and generalist parasites. In the meta-population studied it seems that generalist lice have a greater chance to colonize a single species. Some example are presented as a validation of this theory (Streptopelia decaocto and Parus major) and the example of Turdus merula as a exception to this paradigm. Lastly we show the poor parasitological situation of Erithacus rubecula in Italy.

This review emphasize that the avian host are strongly affected by ectoparasites and these ectoparasites causes serious threats to birds. These ectoparasites might be a serious threat for growth, reproduction and long term survival of birds. Moreover, these parasites may affect the host behavior in different ways like they can provoke their locomotors performance. By close observation it can be seen that these ectoparasites damage the bird\’s feathers. Over all, the avian host was undeniably connected with species heterogeneity, species abundance and behavior. Different populations have close relations between epidemiological theory and ecosystem management. Among environmental factors that lead the prevalence of ectoparasites are temperature and seasonal variations. Migratory birds may also face extra risks to an already risky journey and also can got infected. Greater number of ectoparasites abundance for some migratory birds suggests that more research and observation are need particularly with reference to emerging diseases. The lice species are mostly present on passerine birds. The avifauna play critical role in the ecosystem and are implicated in the transmission of zoonotic diseases. Study of ectoparasites movement with migratory birds is not only important with economical point of view but also have import role in public health. The visual observation and survey of ectoparasites on migratory birds is very important for control and prevention of parasites responsible for zoonotic disease.

In this part the genus Myrsidea as a whole and the characters of taxonomic importance for the separation of the species and species groups are discussed. Previous attempts to subdivide the genus are considered. The species parasitic on the avian subfamily Turdinae are revised, fifteeen known species are being re-described and five new species described. There is a key to the species groups and a list of the hosts and parasites.
