INTBODUCTION
The extent of the Brit ish { lea fauna depends part ly upon the breadth and species content of the
indigenous mammal and bird fauna, part ly upon the normal increment to that fauna by the natural
acce;sion of new host species bringing with them new fleas, part ly by exist inq immigrant species
introducing new fleas, part ly upon the introduction of new hosts by rnan The Brit ish l ist of f leas
comprises ihose species recognised by Smit (1957) and the addit ions of Usher 11968)' Slebbing
(1970) and Dunne t {1971) O f th i s l i s t I now:
(a) remove: Echidnophaqa qall inacea (Westwood) for which we have but a single record'
ft i i" tropi""t ipe"i". i f 'ere has been no evidenc€, and there is l i t t le l ikel ihood'
of j l breeding here, Xenopsvlla brasi l iensis (Baker) ,for which there rs only one
reco rd l t i sa t rop i ca l spec ies wh ich doesno tappear to beab le to es tab l i sh i t se { f
even in dock areas
(b) consider possibly doubtful: Q13919a5y16 | Ilillbglg Kohaut which has been recorded
once on a Scott ish badger. As there is a considerable rr]ovement of badgers by
zealous conservationists and this traf{ ic certainly has included introductronsto Scotland we must consider the possibi l i ty of this f lea having a contrnental
orgin
(c) accept provisionally: lschnopsvllus variabi l l is Waqner thouqh thpre is onlv one record'
Ihe host also l €s an addit jon lo tbe Brit ish l ist but there is l i t t le possibi l i ty of
i t having been introduced by man and it could well be in the process of becomlnq
established on the south coast.
(d) accept the fol lowing inlrocluctions oJ long residence because they have been able to
establish themselves in lhe wild (except perhaps Xenopsylla cheopis' but this
species has been with us for as long as bubonic plague hasl:

The three new specaes have been included on a single map (No. 60).
I have incorporated those records which have come to me either from materiar or lists sent to meby my many correspondents or lrom literature which has come to my notice up to 3lst l\4av, .1974,
I acknowledge the help of the very many people who have sent me specimens and especially theassistance. support and advice of Dr. Miriam Rothschild. F.G.A.M. Smit, G.B.
