Extract

The following records of Canadian Siphonaptera are supplementary to those detailed in Fox (1940), Ewing and Fox (1943), and Holland (1949, 1952). Records of fleas from the Maritime Provinces are particularly lacking in the literature, being limited to the following species:

NEW BRUNSWICK: Ceratophyllus gallinae (Schrank); Epitedia wenmanni wenmanni (Rothschild); Hoplopsyllus glacialis lynx (Baker); Nearctopsylla genalis laurentina Jordan and Rothschild; Orchopeas caedens durus (Jordan); Oropsylla arctomys (Baker); Stenoponia americana (Baker).
