Abstrakt: Abstract: The taxonomic diversity, distribution patterns, and host-parasite relationships of fleas of the Holarctic– Indo-Malayan genus Neopsylla(Hystrichopsyllidae, Neopsyllinae) are analyzed. The role of some members of this genus as vectors and reservoirs in natural plague foci of Eurasia is analyzed; 14 out of 67 species and subspecies of the genus Neopsyllahave been recorded as the main, accessory or occasional vectors of the plague pathogen.
