Henry Ellsworth Ewing
Henry Ellsworth Ewing (11 February 1883 – 5 January 1951) was an American arachnologist. He worked at several universities, but spent most of his career at the Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine. Ewing was considered an authority on arachnids, particularly mites. Early life and education Henry Ellsworth Ewing was born on 11 February 1883 in Arcola, Illinois. He attended Knox College and obtained a bachelor's degree at the University of Illinois in 1906. In 1908, he received a master's degree from the University of Illinois. In 1906 and 1907, he was a student at the University of Chicago. In 1910 and 1911, he was a Schuyler fellow at Cornell University, which is where he earned his PhD in 1911. Career From 1908 to 1909, Ewing taught high school. Ewing's first job in the biological sciences was as an Assistant Entomologist at Oregon State University. He held this position from 1911 to 1914. He then worked at Iowa State University as an assistant professor of zoology and e ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Louse
Louse ( : lice) is the common name for any member of the clade Phthiraptera, which contains nearly 5,000 species of wingless parasitic insects. Phthiraptera has variously been recognized as an order, infraorder, or a parvorder, as a result of developments in phylogenetic research. Lice are obligate parasites, living externally on warm-blooded hosts which include every species of bird and mammal, except for monotremes, pangolins, and bats. Lice are vectors of diseases such as typhus. Chewing lice live among the hairs or feathers of their host and feed on skin and debris, while sucking lice pierce the host's skin and feed on blood and other secretions. They usually spend their whole life on a single host, cementing their eggs, called nits, to hairs or feathers. The eggs hatch into nymphs, which moult three times before becoming fully grown, a process that takes about four weeks. Genetic evidence indicates that lice are a highly modified lineage of Psocoptera (now called Ps ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Ischnocera
The Ischnocera is a large superfamily of lice. They are mostly parasitic on birds, but including a large family (the Trichodectidae) parasitic on mammals. The genus '' Trichophilopterus'' is also found on mammals (lemurs), but probably belongs to the "avian Ischnocera" and represents a host switch from birds to mammals. It is a chewing louse, which feeds on the feathers and skin debris of birds. Many of the avian Ischnocera have evolved an elongated body shape. This allows them to conceal themselves between the feather shafts and avoid being dislodged during preening or flight. The taxonomy of the group is in need of revision, as several phylogenetic studies have found the group to be paraphyletic, specifically in regards to the two major families Philopteridae and Trichodectidae. In order to resolve this, in 2020 de Moya ''et al.'' proposed retaining the majority of the species (including Philopteridae) within Ischnocera, and then moving Trichodectidae to its own grouping cal ...
