Fleas from the Paranaense Forest in northeastern Argentina are studied. Herein we provided a list of specimens identified, which includes host species and geographical distribution for each taxa, as well as some comments on the morphology, distribution and epidemiological importance when available. The following eight species and subspecies of fleas belonging to four families were identified: Ctenocephalides felis felis (Pulicidae), Craneopsylla minerva minerva (Stephanocircidae), Polygenis (Polygenis) platensis, Polygenis (Polygenis) roberti beebei, Polygenis (Neopolygenis) pradoi, Polygenis (Neopolygenis) pygaerus (Rhopalopsyllidae), Adoratopsylla (Adoratopsylla) antiquorum antiquorum, and Adoratopsylla (Tritopsylla) intermedia intermedia (Ctenophthalmidae). The results obtained increase to eleven the known diversity of fleas in the Argentinean Paranaense Forest area. Seven new flea-host associations are reported for the first time. In addition, all the species and subspecies are mentioned for the first time for the province of Misiones. Besides, the results contribute to the knowledge of mammal ectoparasites and to their biodiversity of the Province, necessary to a better understanding of their role as parasites themselves and vectors of zoonotic importance.
对来自阿根廷东北部巴拉那ense森林的跳蚤进行了研究。在此，我们提供了一份已鉴定标本的清单，其中包括每个分类单元的宿主物种和地理分布，以及在有相关信息时对形态、分布和流行病学重要性的一些评论。鉴定出了属于四个科的以下八种跳蚤及其亚种：猫栉首蚤指名亚种（蚤科）、米氏鹤蚤米氏亚种（细蚤科）、普拉滕斯多蚤（多蚤属）、罗伯特多蚤贝氏亚种（多蚤属）、普拉多新多蚤（新多蚤属）、皮盖鲁新多蚤（新多蚤属）（角叶蚤科）、古蚤古蚤指名亚种（古蚤属）和中间古蚤中间亚种（古蚤属）（栉眼蚤科）。所获得的结果使阿根廷巴拉那ense森林地区已知的跳蚤多样性增加到了十一种。首次报告了七个新的跳蚤 - 宿主关联。此外，所有这些物种和亚种都是首次在米西奥内斯省被提及。此外，这些结果有助于了解该省哺乳动物的体外寄生虫及其生物多样性，这对于更好地理解它们作为寄生虫本身以及具有人畜共患病重要性媒介的作用是必要的。
