We've characterized the microbiome of the sucking louse, Linognathus stenopsis (Phthiraptera, Anoplura, Linognathiidae). Understanding these microbial communities is key to know louse biology and vector potential.

🐼 The Anoplura and Mallophaga of North American mammals
Stanford University, Cal., The University, 1915.

[Source]
Illustration from 1915 depicting twelve different species of Anoplura and Mallophaga, parasitic insects found on North American mammals. Each species is shown as a simple, stylized black line drawing with a dotted texture, highlighting various rounded or elongated body shapes with short bristle-like hairs protruding from the edges. The insects vary in form, some with tapered ends, others nearly oval, and a few with distinct lobes or projections. Each figure is numbered 1 through 12, arranged in a grid pattern against a beige background, emphasizing the diversity of parasitic lice affecting mammal hosts.

🐼 The Anoplura and Mallophaga of North American mammals
Stanford University, Cal., The University, 1915.

[Source]
Illustration showing five detailed, labeled drawings of Anoplura and Mallophaga, which are parasitic lice found on North American mammals. Each louse is depicted from a dorsal view, emphasizing segmented bodies, jointed legs, antennae, and fine hair or bristle-like structures. The drawings highlight variations in body shape, size, and hair distribution among different species. The image reflects scientific study from Stanford University, 1915, focusing on these ectoparasites' morphology relevant to mammal hosts.

Also, thanks for sending me down the rabbit hole. Now I’m looking into why anoplura only occur on 20% of placentalian mammals. Is it the hair? Skin secretions? Blood? Yeah, I’d follow the guy if this was his thing.

What if AI is short for "Arthropoda - Insecta" and he's actually trying to get more love for anoplura among the BlueSky nature photography cloud, because sucking lice need advocacy too, and...just spitballing here, work with me

𝗕𝗮𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗮𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗲𝘀 (Acari, Anoplura, Cestoda, Diptera, Hemiptera, Nematoda, Siphonaptera, Trematoda) in France
This 2020 paper was a bibliographical survey of bat parasites in France between 1762 and 2018. A total of 113 parasite taxa were identified from 27 host species 🧪
doi.org/10.1051/para...
Overview of the 113 generally recognised parasite taxa that are mentioned in the analysed papers (n = 237) per host taxonomic group. Invalid species (n = 22 Acari and 3 Diptera) recorded in the literature, records reported from France without identification to species level (n = 6 Acari; 1 Cestoda; 2 Diptera; 1 Hemiptera; 2 Nematoda and 2 Trematoda) and species only noted as absent (n = 3 Acari and 1 Diptera) are not included here.

I've met them both.

Lynda is one of the most beautiful human beings I've ever encountered.

Ira was...

Ira was not.
Two comics panels from 𝙊𝙣𝙚! 𝙃𝙪𝙣𝙙𝙧𝙚𝙙! 𝘿𝙚𝙢𝙤𝙣𝙨! the semi-autobiographical genre-defying graphic novel by American cartoonist and pedagogue, Lynda Barry. Panel one- Narrator: AFTER I LEFT HOME AND life WAS instantly EASIER, I FORgot ABOUT the HARD DAYS AND MY SEARCH FOR PEDICULUS CAPITUS OF the ORDER ANOPLURA. A PRETTY NAME EVEN THOUGH IT MEANS Sucking LOUSE. I HAD A BOYFRIEND. HE HAD A Pretty NAME TOO. Lynda: YOU REMIND ME SO MUCH OF SOME BODY, BUT I CAN'T THINK OF WHO. Ira: I FIND THAT REMARK INSULTING IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ME. Note: (HE HAD A FREAKY PONYTAIL) Panel two- Narrator: He WAS RAISED IN A NICE SUBURB AND had ALWAYS BEEN Something OF A GIFTED CHILD. HE SEEMED INTERESTED IN MY BACKGROUND AND NICK- NAMED ME "little GHETTO GIRL". I'M SURE HE meant IT IN THE Nicest WAY Ira (reading the LONELY GENIUS GAZETTE): MY MOTHER THINKS YOU'RE LYING ABOUT YOUR AGE. SHE THINKS YOU'RE OLDER, I TOLD HER ABOUT YOUR HISTORY. HOW IT'S LIKE WAR. THE FOOT SOLDIERS ALWAYS AGE FASTER THAN THE OFFICERS. WERE YOU AWARE OF THAT? Lynda: UH... Note: ACTUAL DIALOG

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that the human louse (Pediculus humanus, Phthiraptera: Anoplura) is a blood-sucking, wingless, human-specific ectoparasite that is obligate (cannot live without the host) and permanent (complete their life cycle on a host).
