Pediculosis capitis is the most common ectoparasites which endemic globally in developed and developing countries that have tropical and subtropical climates. Head lice are obligate blood-sucking which has the potential to cause anaemia. Itching caused by flea saliva can cause children to have a sleeping problem, disrupt the concentration of learning, resulting in a decrease in achievement at school. The spread of pediculosis capitis is supported by the fact that this disease is more often diagnosed in children from dysfunctional families, orphanages and special schools that live in dormitories. This study aims to analyze the correlation between host factors, agents and the environment with the incidence of pediculosis capitis. This study was an analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design conducted in January 2019. There were 382 samples that had inclusion dan exclusion criteria. Data collected from anamnesis questionnaires and hair examinations of respondents.The result was analyzed using chi-square and logistic regression. There were 160 respondents (41,9\%) had been found positive pediculosis capitis. The Statistical test showed that gender, personal hygiene, hair type, length of hair, knowledge, the habit of sharing the use of the comb, the habit of sharing the bed and the habit of sharing towel have a significant association to the incident of pediculosis capitis. The most dominant factor in the incidence of pediculosis capitis was personal hygiene. The children with poor personal hygiene had risk 8.713 times to get pediculosis capitis than children with good personal hygiene.

Haematopinus is the biggest parasite of insect family of domestic animal having all lifecycles in the female, and can only live some hours out of the female body. This research aims at seeing the ultra-structural difference of nymph stadium with Haematopinus sp. of mature insect facing Fries Holland (FH) from Jember district based on morphologic identification key of Meleney and Kim. Samples of nymph stadium and mature insect of Haematopinus sp. was taken from tail end area, perineum vulvae, area, and around eyes of 5 Fries Holland (FH) cows of each infected cow from Jember district. The samples were identified based on morphologic identification key of Meleney and Kim and did Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) of part of caput and abdomen. Results of morphologic identification and ultra-structure were analyzed descriptively. There are ultra-structural differences of nymph stadium from mature insect, especially ultra-structure of abdomen area. Nymph stadium has not been found in gonopod development; while, in mature insect, gonopod has developed and can be identified. SEM method can be used to change the morphologic identification, especially in a mature insect. Nymph and mature insect of Haematopinus sp. in Fries Holland (FH) from Jember district are Haematopinus quadripertusus species

One juvenile and nine adult American badgers, Taxidea taxus (Schreber), from Manitoba were examined for ectoparasites by whole body washing or visual inspection. Five of seven adults washed from the Shoal Lake area were infested with one species of chewing louse,
Neotrichodectes interruptofasciatus (Kellogg and Ferris) (mean intensity \– 539); females were significantly more abundant than males. The ratio of nymphs to females was 2.5. The washed juvenile badger was infested with 6384 specimens of N. interruptofasciatus, but males (n=286) and females (n=287) were almost equal in number, and the ratio of nymphs to females was 20.3. Adult badgers were infested with five species of fleas: Pulex irritans Linnaeus, Oropsylla rupestris (Jordan), O. bruneri (Baker), O. tuberculata (Baker), and O. arctomys (Baker). All seven adult badgers from the Shoal Lake area were infested with adult American dog ticks, Dermacentor variabilis (Say). Mean intensity was 63.4, with a total of 258 males and 186 females.

Abstract. Avian and other migratory fauna are strongly exposed to different forms of parasites in their feeding and breeding areas; the white stork is a good model for the study of this phenomenon. This study was carried out in the region of Tebessa, which is located in the extreme east of Algeria, at an altitude of 896 m and which belongs to the semi-arid bioclimatic stage. Two colonies of white stork are chosen for this study, one nesting in urban areas and the other in a natural environment. The results obtained revealed the presence of ten ectoparasite species found on the feathers of the white stork. They belong to 4 orders: Phthiraptera, Heteroptera, Hymenoptera and Diptera, 4 suborders and 5 families. A total of 246 specimens were collected: 67 specimens of Ardeicola sp., 63 specimens of Colpocephalum sp. and 46 specimens of C. zebra. On the storks from the urban area, 50 specimens were collected; they belong to 7 different species. Ardeicola ciconiae is the most abundant species, accounting for 38\% of the total fauna, followed by Ciconiphilus quadriputulatus (Burmeister, 1838) with 28\%, Ardeicola sp., with 14\%. On the storks from the natural area, 117 specimens were collected; they belong to 4 different species. Ardeicola sp. is the most abundant species, accounting for 38\% of the total ectoparasitic fauna, followed by Colpocephalum sp., with 36\% and C. zebra with 26\%.

Abstract. For our study, sampling of the Blue Poppy droppings of Pavo cristatus in captivity, February and March 2016 from two zoos (El Hamma Test Garden and the Ben Aknoun) of 24 individuals were collected. The flotation technique allowed us to identify the parasites found in our samples. Our results revealed the presence of a 50\% rate of the genus Capillaria and a rate of 50\% of the genus Ascaridia at the Reghaia marsh. In the Ben Aknoun National Park, we recorded a total of 179 individuals of hosted parasites, including Eimeria sp. (AR\% = 7.26\%) and Capillaria sp. (5.03\%) are the dominant in the Blue Peacock droppings. Finally 77 parasite specimens from 24 samples of this bird\&$\#$39;s droppings were recorded at the El Hamma test garden with a relative abundance recorded for Capillaria sp. (AR\% = 7.79\%), Eimeria sp. (AR\% = 6.49\%), and Amidostomum sp. (AR\% = 5.19\%). The ectoparasites encountered in both Pavo cristatus are Amyrsidea minuta and Colpocephalum tausi in the Ben Aknoun National Park.

Ectoparasites tend to be an underappreciated facet of mammalian natural history. This is in light of their possible involvement with changes in roosting and nesting behavior, daily activity patterns, transmission of pathogens and the growth and development of mammals. In order to better appreciate the diversity of ectoparasitic organisms present in the Chihuahuan Desert region, a compilation of known ectoparasite-host relationships has been gathered for the diverse mammalian species known to occur within the northern extent of the desert\’s boundaries. Ectoparasites reported include fleas (Siphonaptera), lice (Phthiraptera), true bugs (Hemiptera), flies (Diptera), ticks (Ixodida), and other mites (Acari). Common methods for the collection and recovery of ectoparasitic insects and acari from mammals are presented. The variety of parasitic forms found is discussed, combined with aspects of natural history, such as methods of feeding, host attachment, and known pathogen vectoring. In addition, a few areas of future study are suggested, including the need to collect, identify, describe, and begin the ecological study on several largely overlooked groups of ectoparasites.

The aim of this review is to show the value of parasite data in studies of stockidentity and socialstructure. Methods: the application of the technique to marinemammals is hampered by the lack of control over sampling conditions and the paucity of information about the biology of their parasites. Relevant criteria for, suitable parasite tags are discussed. Case studies: previous work on marinemammals is presented to illustrate the usefulness and limitations of parasite data. A study of pilot whales revealed that differences in helminth infections between two groups of pods conformed with previous evidence suggesting separate stocks. Other investigations have provided valuable information about behavioural features of marinemammals. Studies of whale-lice exemplify the advantages of using directly transmitted ectoparasites. Conclusions: the technique has so far proven more successful in behavioural than in population studies.
