FLEAS  (SIPHONAPTERA)

Heuristic Inquiries in the PARHOST1



The PARHOST1 system permits analysing large amounts of data, in particular distribution patterns of the world's flea fauna represented by 2000 species. The PARHOST1 system permits analysing distribution patterns and parasite-host relations of separate flea taxa and their interaction in various aspects

Software of the PARHOST1 system permits constructing

tables of numerical and taxonomic composition of flea faunas in 40 zoogeographic regions of the world

nomenclature and classifications of distribution types of fleas (based upon flea distribution in 40 zoogeographic regions of the world)

indicis and dendrograms of fauna similarity in 40 regions

indices and tables of statics of types of parasite-host relations of flea taxa with mammmal and bird taxa

tables of numbers of flea species parasitising on mammals or birds of a particular taxon

tables of number of host species related to fleas of certain taxa

tables of numbers of flea species related to a certain taxon of host in certain region
