Pediculus humanus capitis (head lice) and Pediculus humanus humanus (body lice): Response to laboratory temperature and humidity and susceptibility to monoterpenoids
(Springer, 2009-07)
Human pediculosis is produced by Pediculus humanus humanus (Linnaeus 1758) and Pediculus humanus capitis (De Geer 1767). Laboratory-reared body lice, susceptible to insecticides, were used as reference in toxicological ...
Resistance to insecticides and effect of synergists on permethrin toxicity in Pediculus capitis (anoplura: Pediculidae) from Buenos Aires
(Entomological Society of America, 2000-12)
Permethrin-resistant colonies of Pediculus capitis (De Geer) from Buenos Aires were used to establish a resistance profile and to examine resistance mechanisms. All permethrin-resistant head lice (resistance ratio from ...
Human lice show photopositive behaviour to white light
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2011-10)
We studied the behavioural response of body lice and head lice to white light. We also evaluated the influence of starvation and the presence of other individuals on this response. Experiments were performed in a rectangular ...

Insect antennae are sophisticated sensory organs, usually covered with sensory structures responsible for the detection of relevant signals of different modalities coming from the environment. Despite the relevance of the ...
Prevalence and levels of permethrin resistance in Pediculus humanus capitis de Geer (Anoplura: Pediculidae) from Buenos Aires, Argentina
(Entomological Society of America, 2003-07)
Permethrin has been used extensively for control of Pediculus humanus capitis De Geer (Anoplura: Pediculidae) in Argentina since 1990, resulting in the development of resistance to this and other pyrethroids. This resistance ...
