Found in bird's nest. Can anyone tell me if it is Ceratophyllus gallinae or not? I have other views. Bigger pic here: http://www.flickr...7/sizes/o/ Edit: Norway, 2-3mm cyprinoid attached the following image:  [100.17Kb] Edited by cyprinoid on 19-03-2010 21:59 Hyperbolizer |

There are a lot of species. Cook the whole thing in KOH and make photos! I have a key. Walter Walter Pfliegler - Amateur Nature Photographer from Hungary (and molecular biologist) |

Sounds like something I would mess up. I will keep it as cf. Ceratophyllus sp. and hope I can get away with that

Can You be 100% sure in the genus? (Just asking). If You like, send the specimen to me.
