title: [The host-loyalty index of fleas, its analysis and importance in plague epizootiology].
abstract: Simple geographical models using chronometric parasitic characteristics were applied to substantiate the determination of the host-loyalty index of fleas. A mathematical relationship was inferred between the number of fleas feeding on a single rodent within a time unit and their quantity and the duration of an once-through parasitizing.
