Extract

Three species and one subspecies of fleas, all belonging to the Ceratophyllidae, are described and figured in this paper. One of the species, formerly known only from Siberia, and imperfectly described, is redescribed, and recorded from Yukon Territory. The remaining two species and the subspecies are believed to be new to science.
