Abstract

Louse flies (Diptera: Hippoboscidae) are specialized ectoparasites of birds, influencing host health and potentially acting as vectors of pathogens. A new species of the genus Ornithomya Latreille, 1802 (Diptera: Hippoboscidae), Ornithomya panovi sp. n., is described from specimens collected in Lazovsky Nature Reserve (Russia). O. panovi sp. n. belongs to the avicularia species-group and is distinguished from other known Ornithomya species inhabiting Russia and Japan by several morphological features: reduction of tergite 4, wing length, ratio of costal vein sections between junctions R1 and R2+3 and between junctions R2+3 and R4+5 and arrangement of wing microtrichia as well as by genetic distances. This discovery expands our knowledge of the region's parasite biodiversity and highlights the need for continued faunistic surveys in the Russian Far East.

俄国远东螟蝇一新种，1802（双翅目：蝇科）

虱蝇（双翅目：蝇科）是鸟类的特化体外寄生虫，影响宿主健康并可能作为病原体的载体。描述了1802年在俄罗斯拉索夫斯基自然保护区采集的鸟属一新种（双翅目：河马科），鸟属panovi sp. n。O. panovi sp. n.属于鸟属（avicularia）种属，与栖息在俄罗斯和日本的其他已知鸟属（Ornithomya）不同，其形态学特征包括：红土体4的减少、翅膀长度、R1和R2+3之间以及R2+3和R4+5之间的肋静脉截面比例、翅膀微毛的排列以及遗传距离。这一发现扩大了我们对该地区寄生虫生物多样性的认识，并强调了在俄罗斯远东地区继续进行动物调查的必要性。

期刊介绍： The International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife (IJP-PAW) publishes the results of original research on parasites of all wildlife, invertebrate and vertebrate. This includes free-ranging, wild populations, as well as captive wildlife, semi-domesticated species (e.g. reindeer) and farmed populations of recently domesticated or wild-captured species (e.g. cultured fishes). Articles on all aspects of wildlife parasitology are welcomed including taxonomy, biodiversity and distribution, ecology and epidemiology, population biology and host-parasite relationships. The impact of parasites on the health and conservation of wildlife is seen as an important area covered by the journal especially the potential role of environmental factors, for example climate. Also important to the journal is ''one health'' and the nature of interactions between wildlife, people and domestic animals, including disease emergence and zoonoses.
