In this study, we sequenced the <jats:italic>N. hongyangensis<\/jats:italic> mitogenome and explored the mitogenomic evolution of Siphonaptera and Phthiraptera, which both belong to the Insecta on warm\u2010blooded animals. The mitogenomes of Siphonaptera are closed\u2010circular double\u2010stranded DNA molecules and exhibit highly conserved structural features. In contrast, the mitogenomes of most Phthiraptera species exhibit extensive fragmentation and comprise multiple minichromosomes. We performed a comparative analysis of nucleotide composition, Ka\/Ks ratios, and codon usage patterns in Siphonaptera and Phthiraptera mitogenomes. Compared to Phthiraptera with low locomotory capacity, Siphonaptera with high locomotory capacity have higher AT content, slower evolution, and greater influence from natural selection (i.e., micro\u2010habitat). The mitogenomic evolution of Siphonaptera and Phthiraptera was influenced by locomotory capacity and life history. Phylogenetic analysis based on 13 PCGs showed that Ceratophyllidae, Leptopsyllidae, and Ctenophthalmidae were paraphyletic, and Vermipsyllidae, Hystrichopsyllidae, Pulicidae, and Pygiopsyllidae were monophyletic. This study provides new insights into the phylogenetic relationships and mitogenomic evolution of Siphonaptera.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ece3.71108","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,12]],"date-time":"2025-03-12T04:08:24Z","timestamp":1741752504000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Evolution of the <i>Neopsylla hongyangensis<\/i> Mitogenome: Insights Into the Mitogenomic Evolution of the Orders Siphonaptera and the Phthiraptera"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"15","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-7265-2397","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xiaoxia","family":"Lin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Yunnan Provincial Key Laboratory for Zoonosis Control and Prevention, Institute of Pathogens and Vectors Dali University  Dali Yunnan China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ju","family":"Pu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Yunnan Provincial Key Laboratory for Zoonosis Control and Prevention, Institute of Pathogens and Vectors Dali University  Dali Yunnan China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wenge","family":"Dong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Yunnan Provincial Key Laboratory for Zoonosis Control and Prevention, Institute of Pathogens and Vectors Dali University  Dali Yunnan China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1469-185X.2012.00242.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","first-page":"1","article-title":"Effects of Season, Habitat, and Host Characteristics on Ectoparasites of Wild Rodents in a Mosaic Rural Landscape","volume":"14","author":"Benedek A.
