Abstract
For this the research, 2035 individuals of small mammals of 18 species were examined in order to find out the presence of obligate hematophages (Anoplura); from those 984 lice of 5 species were collected. The species composition of Anoplura, the indices of occurrence, infestation and the abundance of Anoplura on the Insectivora and Rodentia were analyzed. There have been noted repeated cases of Anoplura parasitizing the mammals unusual for them, which reflects interspecific contacts of small mammals. The features of the biotopic confinement of the parasite were considered.
