This report describes effective treatment of demodicosis in ferrets using amitraz, marking the first known cases in this species.

This study concluded that coat damage in captive rhesus macaques is unlikely caused by parasitic, bacterial, or mycotic infections but may be linked to environmental or behavioral factors affecting hair growth.

This study reports the first successful treatment of a dog infected with Mycobacterium avium subspecies hominissuis using antibiotics, with no zoonotic transmission observed.

In this case series, cats infested with Lynxacarus radovskyi developed self-induced alopecia similar to flea allergic dermatitis, primarily affecting the perianal area.

In this report, the sighting of a maned wolf in a rural area of Brazil with severe hair loss, likely due to alopecia, was documented, and it was suspected that the condition resulted from disease transmission from domestic dogs.

This study observed that during male silkmoth development, trichogen cells in olfactory sensilla undergo significant membrane recycling, contributing to sensillum structure formation in a precisely timed series of stages.

In this study, researchers documented the first instance of alopecia in bats within the Puebla region, specifically affecting two Artibeus jamaicensis and one Choeronycteris mexicana, possibly linked to environmental stress from human activities interfering with their nutrition.

In this laboratory study, the methanolic extract of Eclipta alba demonstrated significant anthelmintic activity against earthworms (Pheretima posthuma), causing paralysis and death at doses of 50-100 mg/ml, with stronger effects observed at higher concentrations compared to the standard treatment, albendazole.

This study described the structure of the hair brush on male Endoclita vietnamensis moths' legs, identifying characteristics such as specialized scales and a pheromone gland, which could facilitate the future development of pheromone-based pest control methods for eucalyptus pests in China.

This study reports that treating a feline with progressive pruritus, alopecia, and FIV infection with imidacloprid and moxidectin resulted in remission of clinical signs and elimination of Demodex cati mites, as confirmed by parasitological examination and genetic sequencing.

This study conducted in Batam City found a 10.79% prevalence of alopecia among 417 captured bats across seven species, with higher rates in fragmented urban forests associated with anthropogenic pressures, highlighting the influence of habitat conditions on bat health.

This study suggests that Demodex mites might universally inhabit adult humans, with a phylogenetic analysis indicating potential undiscovered lineages of the D. brevis species based on geographic differences.

This study observed significant differences in skin fungal communities between healthy and alopecic cynomolgus macaques, suggesting certain microorganisms may be associated with alopecia in these primates.

This case report highlights that asymptomatic domestic cats can transmit Microsporum canis, leading to tinea capitis in humans, as seen in a four-year-old girl in the study.

This study provides genomic and epigenomic insights into the white wax scale insect, highlighting high methylation levels and differential hormone profiles linked to its sexual dimorphism and developmental differences.

This report describes the first diagnosed case of dermatophytosis caused by Microsporum canis in a young maned wolf, emphasizing the importance of monitoring emerging diseases in this vulnerable species.

This study found that undiluted mint leaf extract effectively inhibited multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and killed Culex pipiens larvae, suggesting its potential as a biocontrol strategy around hospitals.

This study found that Microsporum canis was the most prevalent dermatophyte in dogs and cats in Western Turkey, with younger animals more frequently infected than older ones.

This study reports the first known occurrence of Leporacarus gibbus infestation alongside Cheyletiella parasitovorax and Psoropotes cuniculi in a domestic rabbit in Espírito Santo, Brazil.

This case report documents the first instance of Microsporum canis infection in a red fox, successfully treated with ketoconazole, highlighting asymptomatic cats as possible carriers of this pathogen.

This study observed mycobacterial infection with M. xenopi in a pet ferret, noting its resistance to doxycycline, and highlighted the potential zoonotic transmission risk associated with such infections.

In this study, gamma benzene hexachloride washes successfully resolved skin disease in guinea pigs affected by Trixacarus caviae, after confirmation via skin scrapings.

This study found that combining prodigiosin and essential oil from Thuja orientalis leaves showed a synergistic effect against the 3rd larva stage of Cx. pipiens, significantly reducing acetylcholine esterase activity and altering midgut pH, compared to untreated larvae.

This study presents the first reported case of kerion-type scalp mycosis caused by Aspergillus protuberus, emphasizing the importance of mycological examination when diagnosing unusual scalp infections, especially in children.

This study found that adding zinc to the drinking water improved hair coat and skin condition in moustached marmosets with symptoms resembling zinc deficiency.

This case report describes a sarcoptic mange outbreak caused by Trixacarus caviae in a guinea pig breeding colony, which was successfully treated with subcutaneous ivermectin injections and preventive spraying.

This case report describes a Balinese breed dog diagnosed with demodecosis and malasseziosis, which improved after 30 days of treatment including amitraz, ketoconazole, and supportive therapies. The findings suggest that consistent treatment and environmental management can aid in recovery from these skin conditions in dogs.

In this case report, researchers documented the first instance of alopecia in a bat from Veracruz, México, specifically in an individual of Artibeus jamaicensis, likely caused by a thoracic injury leading to an infection.

In this veterinary case report, the treatment of a 3-year-old male cat named Chipmunk for scabiosis, otitis externa, toxocariosis, and ancylostomiasis using ivermectin, diphenhydramine, drontal, and additional medications was found to be clinically effective.
