Deer keds (Lipoptena spp.) are blood-sucking ectoparasites of domestic and wild animals, and also accidentally of humans. In Europe, five Lipoptena spp. have been recorded, although the lack of specific taxonomic keys has often led to mistaken identification or to missing data. The present study aimed to develop an identification key of the European species and also to identify Lipoptena spp. found on wild ungulates in northern Italy. In total, 390 hippoboscids were collected from Rupicapra rupicapra, Capreolus capreolus, Cervus elaphus and Ovis aries musimon in an Alpine area of Italy. After morphological identification, 140 specimens were subjected to phylogenetic analysis based on mitochondrial (CO1) and nuclear (CAD) gene sequences. Despite the expected presence of slight morphological variations, all specimens examined were identified both microscopically and molecularly as Lipoptena cervi (100% identity for both CO1 and CAD genes). The massive increase in wild ungulate populations can favour the possibility of detecting other species of Lipoptena. The identification keys proposed in the present study may help with monitoring the presence of Lipoptena species, particularly in European countries where this ectoparasite is neglected and for which various data (from diffusion to control methods) are still missing.

在意大利北部的野生有蹄类动物中，鹿科德斯（Kers）具有用于识别Lipoptena spp的分类关键。欧洲。

鹿科动物（Lipoptena spp。）是家畜和野生动物的吸血性外寄生物，也是人的偶然吸血性。在欧洲，有五个Lipoptena spp。尽管缺少特定的分类密钥经常导致识别错误或数据丢失，但已经记录了这些错误。本研究旨在开发欧洲物种的鉴定关键，并鉴定Lipoptena spp。在意大利北部的野生有蹄类动物中发现。在意大利的一个高山地区，共采集了390个河马卵，分别来自鲁比卡普（Rupicapra rupicapra），Capreolus capreolus，Cervus elaphus和Ovis aries musimon。形态鉴定后，根据线粒体（CO1）和核（CAD）基因序列对140个标本进行了系统发育分析。尽管预期会出现轻微的形态变化，所有检查的标本在显微镜下和分子上均被鉴定为Lipoptena cervi（对于CO1和CAD基因均具有100％的同一性）。野生有蹄类动物种群的大量增加可能有利于发现其他唇形科物种的可能性。本研究中提出的鉴定关键可能有助于监测脂单胞菌属物种的存在，特别是在欧洲国家中，这种寄生虫被忽略，并且仍然缺少各种数据（从扩散到控制方法）。
