Siphonaptera from mammals in Alaska. Supplement II. Southeastern Alaska.

1980 
Eleven taxa are treated in this first annotated check list of mammal fleas of Alaska east of longitude 141° west. Twelve new records of six taxa are listed including the first record of Myodopsylla gentilis J & R for southeastern Alaska. Associations with 12 species of wild mammals, the Norway rat, dog, and man are listed. The zoogeographic position of southeastern Alaska as a pathway and a destination of two Vancouverian taxa and seven Vancouverian-Cordilleran taxa is related to Alaska west of 141° and to British Columbia. Ranges of Monopsyllus ciliatus protinus (Jordan) and possibly Hystrichopsylla dippiei spinata Holland were extended to Baranof Island by transplants of red squirrels and martens, respectively.
