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.

The chewing lice (Phthiraptera: Insecta) are parasitic insects of variety of birds belonging to the large family of Phasianidae (Aves: Galliformes). The lice have strong mandibles with biting mouth parts and develop specific host-parasite relationship. They cause acute to chronic infestation to hosts directly. These parasitic insects are the source of various diseases, like flue, and also serve as a vector of some bacteria and helminthes parasites. Presently only one type of host, guinea fowl Numida meleagris (Linnaeus, 1758) was selected and examined for parasites examination, investigation, identification, population density, means and rate of infestation of from different urban and rural localities of Sindh, Pakistan. There were 15 guinea fowl Numida meleagris (Linnaeus, 1758) were captured and brought to the Parasitological laboratory of Department of Zoology, University of Sindh, Jamshoro. The study was carried out from April 2015 \–March 2016. Guinea fowls Numida meleagris (Linnaeus, 1758) were sprayed with Permathrin (Coopex powder) and ket on white paper sheets for about 32-35 minutes. The fowls were checked time to time after 2 to 3 weeks. The chewing lice were collected hand picking methods with fine brushes and preserved in 70-75\% ethyl alcohol. The permanent microscopic slides with cover slips were prepared for final mounting in Canada balsam. At present 130 specimens were recovered and classified into 4 species which belongs to 3 genera. The species and their prevalence are 19.23\% for Menopon gallinae (Linnaeus, 1758), 23.84\% for Menacanthus stramineus (Nitzsh, 1818), and 22. 30\% for Menacanthus abdominalis (Piaget, 1880) which belongs to the family Menoponidae and 34.61\% for Goniocotes gallinae (de Geer, 1776) which belongs to the family Philopteridae. All four species were reported first time as new host and new locality records from the study area. All species of chewing were described and compared with other related species and developed taxonomic key

Birds are valuable and precious for many purposes. They are individually representing greatly inhabited life forms and also super indicators of\  fitness of various ecosystems. Galliform birds (Aves: Galliformes) cover up a most important part of our poultry industry including domestic fowls, Gallus gallus domesticus (Linnaeus, 1758). These are commercially and inexpensivelyimportant birds and are affected by different ectoparasites and endoparasites especially under traditional and unhygienic conditions of rearingin our country. The present research work was conducted to calculate the diversity of species of chewing lice and helminthes parasites and their rate of prevalence in domestic fowls, Gallus gallus domesticus (Linnaeus, 1758). For this study the domestic fowls Gallus gallus domesticus (Linnaeus, 1758) were collected live from different urban and rural areas of Hyderabad, Sindh, Pakistan. The study was carried out from 2017-2019. A total of 95 fowls were observed and then dissected for the collection and examination of parasites. Over all prevalence were recorded 91.57\%. The species of chewing lice (Phthiraptera) were recovered from wings, belly and body feathers and helminthes parasites were from small intestine only. The identified chewing lice and their prevalence
were Menacanthus stramineus (Nitzsh, 1818), (16.89\%), Menopon gallinae (Linnaeus, 1758),(18.72\%), Menacanthus pallidulus (Neumann, 1912), (12.36\%). Goniocotes gallinae (de Geer, 1776) (10.64\%), and Goniodes dissimilis (Denny, 1842) (11.99\%). The identified helminthes parasites and their prevalence were Choanotaenia infundibulum (Bloch, 1779) (11.01\%), Raillietina cysticillus (Molin 1858), (9.54\%) and Cotugnia dignophora (Pasquale 1890), (8.81\%). The results of present study discovered that the less care and attention were required for handling and rearing of domestic fowls in study area.

Despite domestic turkey being widespread around the world, many of their associated ectoparasites have not yet been studied in many parts throughout the globe. In Egypt, only two species of lice, Chelopistes meleagridis (Linnaeus, 1758) and Lipeurus caponis (Linnaeus, 1758) have been recorded associated to the turkey while in Saudi Arabia the bird has not previously examined to chewing lice before. These records of chewing lice on the domestic turkey Meleagris gallopavo domesticus (Linnaeus, 1758) in Egypt and Saudi Arabia have been revised. Nine domestic turkeys from two local farms outside Cairo and two birds from the Riyadh bird market, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia were examined for chewing lice. A total of 309 specimens of lice were identified. Two species of lice, Menacanthus stramineus Nitzsch, 1818 and Goniodes gigas (Taschenberg, 1879), were recorded for the first time in Egypt. While only Goniodes gigas consider a new recored for Saudi Arabia parasitic fauna. Three additional species, Menopon gallinae (Linnaeus, 1758) and Goniocotes gallinae (De Geer, 1778), and Lipeurus caponis were also collected. We summarize eight species of chewing lice associated with turkeys and provide an identfication key to them. Also, ecological and taxonomic remarks were provided with images for newly recorded species.

English title: Chewing lice of free reared guinea-fowls (Numida meleagris, L. 1758) in the state of Rio de Janeiro

Abstract: A total of 35 guinea-fowls, Numida meleagris, were examined for lice at five municipalities in the Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil, (Barra Mansa, Maric\á, Itabora\í, Cachoeiras de Macac\ú e Cambuci). All birds were infested by lice. Eigth chewing lice species were encountered and their respective prevalence were found: Menopon galinae (100\%); Menacanthus stramineus (2,8\%); Menacanthus pallidulus (2,8\%); Colpocephalum turbinatum (2,8\%) Lipeurus caponis (31,4\%); Lipeurus tropicalis (2,8\%); Goniodes gigas (25,7\%) and Goniocotes gallinae (40\%) . The polyparasitism was observed being the association between Menopon gallinae and Goniocotes gallinae, the most prevalent one. The contact among guinea-fowls and other domestic birds might have been responsible for the parasitism with lice common to other bird species. For the first time it was registered in Brazil the occurrence of the following chewing lice in guinea-fowls: Menacanthus stramineus, Menacanthus pallidulus,
Colpocephalum turbinatum, Lipeurus caponis, Lipeurus tropicalis and Goniodes gigas. The chewing lice species: Menacanthus pallidulus, Colpocephalum turbinatum and Lipeurus tropicalis were registered for the first time in guinea-fowls.

Goniocotes gigas, Menopon gallinae, Goniodes gigas, Lipeurus caponis, and Cuclogaster heterographus were record-ed, and the most prevalent species across the four localities was Menopon gallinae, with a mean prevalence of (96.8 \%) followed by Goniocotes gallinae (57.0 \%) and Goniodes gigas (56.4 \%). Cuclogaster heterographus and L. caponis recorded low prevalences of 22.2 \% and 13.1 \% respectively. Shongweni (SH) and Mvoti (MV) recorded one bird each with no infestation, whilst all birds from Maphumulo (MP) and Port Shepstone (PS) were infested. Multiple lice species infestation (3 or more species/bird) ranged from 33.3-63.3\% across the 4 localities.

A study was carried out on 144 local chickens (Gallus gallus domesticus), from rural area of El-Tarf to determine the prevalence of chewing lice (Phthiraptera). The overall prevalence rate was 100\% in the El- Tarf poultry. Nine different species of chewing lice were identified during this study: Menopon gallinae, Goniocotes gallinae, Lipeurus caponis, Goniodes dissimilis, Goniodes gigas, Menacanthus stramineus, Cuclotogaster heterographus, Menacanthus cornutus and Menacanthus pallidulus. Menopon gallinae (97.2\%) was the most prevalent lice identified. The mean intensity of lice in the area of El-Tarf was 172.5 per chicken. Menopon gallinae was the species which has the highest mean intensity of infestation (83.2\%). The distribution of nine chewing lice on poultry and their most preferred sites was determined.

The objective of this study was to determine the distribution of ectoparasites on Gallus gallus L., 1758, in freerange chickens from June to October 2001, biweekly collections were accomplished on 25 adult fowls at the farm Boa Vista, district of Santa B\árbara of Tug\úrio, state of Minas Gerais. The species identified once their most common sites of distribution were: Ornithonyssus bursa on the legs (59,22\%); Menopon gallinae on the breast (52,07\%) and thighs (19,92\%); Goniocotes gallinae on the breast (60,72\%) and thighs (18,26\%); Goniodes gigas on the breast (76,29\%) and back (21,02\%); Lipeurus caponis exclusively on the feathers of the neck, wing and tail, and nymphs of Amblyomma cajennense on the crest and around the eyes (98,03\%).

During the 1992-1993 and 1993-1994 shooting seasons, 212 wild red-legged partridge, Alectoris rufa (Galliformes: Phaisanide) were captured in 18 Spanish provinces and examined for chewing lice and ticks. Three tick species and six species of chewing lice were found. Ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) Haemaphysalis punctata Canestrini \& Fanzago, Hyalomma lusitanicum Koch and Ixodes frontalis Panzer were found at the lowest prevalence (1.4\% overall tick prevalence). The louse (Mallophaga) species, Goniodes dispar Burmeister (Goniodidae) (52.8\%) and Cuclotogaster obscurior Hopkins (Philopteridae) (28.8\%) were the most prevalent, while Goniocotes obscurus Giebel (Philopteridae) (10.8\%), Menopon pallens Clay (Menoponidae) (7.5\%) and Menacanthus lyali Rodriguez et al. (Menoponidae) (3.3\%) were found at medium to low prevalence. Columbicola columbae columbae Linnaeus (Philopteridae) was found at the lowest prevalence (0.5\%). The intensity of C. obscurior and overall intensity of all lice species were directly related to the environmental mean temperature and the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), whereas intensity of G. dispar was directly related to NDVI only. The intensity of G. dispar, C. obscurior, all louse intensity, and louse species richness were higher in male than female birds. Intensity of each louse species, all louse intensity and louse species richness were inversely associated with the nutritional index. No relationship was observed between bird age and louse intensity or species richness.

Inter- and intrafamilial relationships among the Megapodiidae are presented and discussed based on their host-specific chewing louse fauna, in particular the Goniodidae (Ischnocera). Use is made of both empirical evidence and statistical methods. So far, 53 species of chewing lice have been described which are found only on megapodes, a number which is still growing. The relationships among the Goniodidae genera on megapodes have been analysed using Wagner parsimony analysis rooted by character polarity (51 morphological features). Based on their chewing lice, the Megapodiidae seem to be more closely related to the Phasianidae than to the Cracidae. Megapodes share no Ischnocera with the cracids, while they share a single genus Goniocotes Burmeister, 1838 (one species only, on Macrocephalon maleo S. Muller, 1846) with the Phasianidae. The distribution of 18 Ischnocera genera support the following intrafamilial division: Alectura Latham, 1824, and Aepypodius Oustalet, 1880, on the one hand and Megapodius Gaimard, 1823, and Eulipoa Ogilvie-Grant, 1893, on the other form respective sister groups. The relationships between Leipoa Gould, 1840, Talegalla Lesson, 1828, and Macrocephalon S. Miiller, 1846, remain unclear.
