English title: Lice (Anoplura) of small mammals of the middle Ob region

Abstract: A study of lice (Anoplura) was performed in 2015-2018 in the moderate taiga of West Siberia in the territory of the middle Ob region (within Ugra). 15 species of small mammals were determined as lice hosts. The most significant species include Alexandromys oeconomus, Microtus rossiae meridionalis, M. agrestis, Myodes glareolus, and M. rutilus. The widest host circle is characteristic of Hoplopleur acanthopus, which also dominates among all lice species found on small mammals. Peak numbers of lice correlate with periods of highest reproductive intensity of mammals, occurring in late spring and early autumn. With an example of the background species, A. oeconomus, the highest degree of infestation mainly by H. acanthopus was recorded in adult males. In adult females, these indices were significantly lower, and they were especially low in young animals. In the population structure of H. acanthopus, females prevail in comparison with males and larvae (approx. 50\%). Co-parasitism of lice on small mammals is especially pronounced in adult animals. Lice species Hoplopleura edentula, Hoplopleura longula, and Polyplax hannswrangeli were recorded from the examined territory for the first time.

Аннотация:\ Обработаны сборы, содержащие 2213 вшей Neohaematopinus palaearctus Ols., снятых с 152 из 865 осмотренных красных сурков Marmota caudata Geoffr. Описаны изменения зараженности сурка вшами в сроки от пробуждения до залегания в спячку в разных вертикальных поясах Таджикистана.

Abstract:\ 2213 lice of Neohaematopinus palaearctcus Ols. were collected from 152 of 865 exami- ned specimens of Marmota caudata Geoffr. from different vertical zones of Tadjikistan. The long-tailed marmot is characterized by a moderate or poor infestation with lice. In the subalpine zone, where the number and density of these animals in rather high, the infestation rate is greater than that in the brushwood zone. In spring after hibernation the infestation of M. caudata is very low. Within the reporoduction period the infesta- tion with lice increases, the latter begin to reproduce intensively. During the preparation for hibernation the infestation rate falls due to a less intensive reproduction of lice. There are no distinct differences in the infestation rate of long-tailed marmots belonging to dif- ferent age groups since there are constant contacts between the individualscof the colony. Only reproducing females live together with brood by themselves, differ in moulting periods and in a greater intensity of invasion during reproduction.

Abstract: 18,068 small mammals belonging to 15 species were examined, 25,059 lice of 7 species (Hoplopleura acanthopus, H. edentula, H. affinis, H. longula, Polyplax serrata, P. borealis, Neohaematopinus laeviusculus) were collected from 2355 animals of 14 species. Information is given on the species composition, occurrence and abundance for lice on shrews and rodents. 50 per cent of collected animals belong to Clethrionomys glareolus and about 85 per cent of lice--to Hoplopleura edentula. Frequent cases were recorded of the occurrence of lice on non-typical hosts as a result of interspecific contacts of animals. H. edentula was more often than other species found on non-typical hosts. No specific lice were reported from shrews and some rodents, only vole lice were found. Seasonal and age changes in lice infection rate of mass rodents as well as infection rate in years of greater and lesser abundance of C. glareolus have been studied.

The Gero{\textquoteright}s traps were used for collecting the host. Lines of traps stood in each place during 3-5 days and were checked twice a day. Trapping of micromammalian hosts and collecting of parasites took place each month, except a few gaps. Total number of collected animals 2854 including 1405 bank voles.

Seasonal changes of abundance and occurrence indices are most expressed in the temporary ectoparasites (ixodid ticks, chiggers, gamasid mites), while in the permanent parasites (lice, acariform mites: Myobiidae, Myocoptidae, Listrophoridae), the seasonal fluctuations of indices are displayed in a less scale. Most vole specimens were infected with this or that ectoparasite species. The parasitocenosis on an individual specimen usually included less than 10 species of the total number 29 species recorded on the bank vole in the area investigated. One ectoparasite species was recorded on 21\% of host specimens, 2-5 ectoparasite species were found on 71\% of host individuals. Maximal number of ectoparasite species (10 species) was registered on one specimen only. The parasite load was dispersed unevenly among the infected voles. Mean number of parasites of all species on a host individual varied from 124 to 295.

Species composition, seasonal dynamics, and a load of ectoparasites per individual and population of the common shrew Sorex araneus have been examined in coniferous and mixed forests of the Ilmen\&$\#$39;-Volkhov lowland (a neighbourhood of Oskuy village, Chudovo district, Novgorod Province) during the period 1999-2003. Trapping of mammals was carried monthly, with exception of few accidental gaps. The Gero traps were used for catching micromammalian hosts. The lines of trap were checked 2 times a day, places of lines changed each 3-5 day. Total number of micromammalians collected during the period of study is 3215, including 1115 specimens of the common shrew S. araneus and 246 ones of the pigmy shrew S. minutus. Parasite fauna on the common shrew included 23 ectoparasite species: fleas--12, ixodid ticks--2, gamasid mites--7, and myobiid mites--2 species. Among recorded species, 9 fleas species and some gamasid species are accidental parasites. These accidental ectoparasite species are common to the bank vole Clethrionomys glareolus in the territory investigated. Species composition, occurrence and abundance indices of parasites changed during the year. In total, about 55\% shrew specimens are infected with ectoparasites. The infracommunity of ectoparasites on the common shrew usually consists of 6 species or less. Mean number of all ectoparasite individuals per one host specimens varies from 4 to 83. The greatest number of parasites (50 and 83) was recorded on the shrews, which carried 5 and 4 parasites species, respectively. Biodiversity of parasite species in the ectoparasite community on the common shrew and the load of parasites per one host specimen are lower than those in the bank vole. In forest biotopes explored, the most part of temporary ectoparasite species found on the common shrew was also recorded on other small mammals, which could have contacts with this host. It is possible to conclude that among the parasite supracommunity in the explored ecosystem, the temporary ectoparasites represent a \"fond\" of temporary parasites, which are common for most small mammal species. A role of different shrew and rodent species as main of additional hosts changes depending on a population density of potential mammalian hosts and other environment factors.

Abstract: 11.501 ectoparasites of 45 species were collected from small mammals (rodents, shrews and double-toothed rodents) in the north-eastern part of Priamurje. The parasitecoenoses are formed in general by gamasid mites (60.4\%) and lice (24.7\%) but faunistically fleas (19 species or 42.2\%) are dominant. Among all ectoparasites the gamasid mites, Laelaps clethrionomydis and Hirstionyssus isabellinus, and the louse Hoplopleura acanthopus ac- count for 64.9\%. The impoverishment of the arthropod fauna in the northern part of Priamurje as com- pared to southern ones proceeds at the expence of chigger mites and more thermophilous species of gamasids and ixodids. With cultivation of forests the content of members of parasitecoenoses becomes more homogenous and their abundance falls.

Russian title:\ О ВШАХ ЗАЙЦЕВ ФАУНЫ СССР

Аннотация: Сообщаются сведения о зараженности вшами беляка, русака и толая, по литературным данным и сборам с беляка на северо-востоке европейской части СССР. Обращается вни- мание на то, что редкое нахождение вшей на зайцах может в значительной мере определяться влиянием одиночного образа жизни с лишь кратковременными контактами особей в период размножения. Дается описание яйца и личинок Haemodipsus leporis Blag. \— паразита беляка. Приводится таблица для определения вшей, паразитирующих на зайцах фауны СССР.

English translated Abstract:\ The paper presents the information (literary data and results of the collections from Lepus timidus L. in the northeast of the European part of the USSR) on the infection rate of three spe- cies of the genus Lepus. Haemodipsus lyriocephalus (Bmm.) was found on L. timidus in northern taiga, its typical host being L. europaeus Pall. In Bolshezemelskaya tundra L. timidus is parasi- tized by the specific louse H. leporis Blag. A rare occurrence of lice on hares is due, to a great extent, to the host\&$\#$39;s mode of life. Egg and larvae of H. leporis are described. A key to species of the genus Haemodipsus, parasites of hares from the USSR, is given.

Russian title:\ О ПАРАЗИТО-ХОЗЯИННЫХ ОТНОШЕНИЯХ ВШЕЙ И ГРЫЗУНОВ

Аннотация: В соответствии с проблемами общей паразитологии, обсуждаемыми В. А. Догелем (1962), рассмотрены некоторые вопросы взаимоотношений между паразитом и хозяином на материа- ле, полученном при обработке массовых сборов вшей с грызунов.

Not infrequently lice can reach great abundance on rodents. The distribution of lice on animals is uneven. The infection with lice depends not only on the physiological and ecological properties of the host but also on the environmental conditions. The distribution of lice on rodents can be affected by the development of transport communications. If a population of rodents is parasitized by two species of specific lice, they belong to different genera. On single animals only one species of lice occurs as a rule; if two species occur, then one of them is dominant. In this way decreases the interspecific competition between lice. Seasonal and age changes in lice infection are associated with those in host\&$\#$39;s biology and behaviour under certain climatic conditions. It is clearly displayed in rodents breeding once a year. The infection with lice in-creases with the rise in rodents abundance. Along with the confirmation of the general rule of poor infection with specific parasites at the borders of the species distribution a case of high infection with lice at the border of the host\&$\#$39;s distribution was noted. In addition to specific lice, alien species are recorded on small mammals which appear due to exchange of parasites between hosts. Examples are given of conquering new hosts by lice; as a result close species of lice can parasitize phylogenetically distant hosts.
