| सारांश: | A new species of Dactylopsylla Jordan, parasites of Geomyidae rodents from Chihuahua, is described and illustrated as D.
samalayucae n. sp. This species is compared with their morphologically closest relatives. Males are characterized by the
shape of the upper lobe of the inmovable and movable process, the shape and chaetotaxy of the distal arm of sternum IX
and the shape of the crochet; and females by the contour of the distal margin of sternum VII. The geographical distribution
of Dactylopsylla is extended to the Chihuahuan desert in Mexico as D. samalayucae n. sp. is reported from south of the
Natural Protected Area Médanos de Samalayuca (MS). A recent key to Dactylopsylla species is updated with inclusion
of the new species. |
