対島産のノミ類について. : 日本産隠翅類の研究 (X)

Last year the author had an opportunity to make a short trip to Tsushima, Nagasaki-ken. Very little is known about the flea-fauna of this island although the other fauna such as mammal-, bird-, and winged insect-, had been fairly well investigated by many authors. Tsushima is located between Kyusyu and Korea. The mammal-fauna had been discussed by Thomas (1908), Kuroda (1920), Kishida (1925) and Tokuda (1941) from the zoogeographical view point. As all the above mammalogists insist, as for the similarities of its fauna among the adjacent lands, it has more elements in Kyushu than in Korea. The present brief report will endorse moreover such interpretation from the side of the parasite-fauna.
