abstract = {Silphopsyllus desmanae, a species of the small subfamily
Platypsyllinae of Leiodidae, lives in the fur of the
semiaquatic Russian desman, and is apparently adapted to
this highly specialized life style. Even though the
morphology of adults of the species was described almost 70
years ago, we re-examined it with modern methods and
documented its external and internal features in detail, and
discuss them with respect to phylogeny and function. Our
analyses of morphological data place Leptinillus as the
sister group of the remaining genera of Platypsyllinae, and
Leptinus as the sister group of Silphopsyllus +
Platypsyllus. Platypsyllinae are supported by many putative
autapomorphies: supraantennal ridges directed mesad but not
extending beyond the antennal insertions and not forming a
transverse ridge; tentorium without connected laminatentoria
anterior to the tentorial bridge; submentum subrectangular;
labrum about as wide as the maxillary-labial complex;
elongate and posteriorly projecting lateral lobes of the
mentum; antennomeres lacking periarticular gutters (and
Hamann's organs); cervical sclerites absent; precoxal
prosternal region distinctly longer than the coxal rests;
mesocoxal cavities situated closer to the body midline than
to the lateral mesothoracic margins; metanepisterna fused
with the metaventrite; metascutum laterally overlapping the
meso- and metapleural regions; procoxae subglobose or only
slightly elongate; mesocoxae subglobose. Platypsyllinae are
most likely the sister group of Coloninae + Cholevinae.
Eight unique apomorphies differentiating Platypsyllus from
all the remaining Platypsyllinae are mainly adaptations for
living in the fur of beavers. Silphopsyllus is much less
adapted to life on a semiaquatic host than Platypsyllus.},
