Abstract:

The herb wood mouse is parasitized by Hoplopleura affinis Burmeister, 1839. For this research, the authors examined a total number of 408 herb wood mice for the presence of permanent ectoparasites (lice). The authors considered changes in the infestation rate in connection with the periods of the rodent’s life, the age and gender composition of the lice, the biotopic confinement peculiarities of the parasite in the conditions of the Trans-Urals forest steppe (Kurgan region). H. affinis is noted to be found on mammals in contact with the herb wood mouse.
