Flea Jumping Spider Naphrys pulex female. Naphrys pulex is a species of spider from the family Salticidae that is widely distributed in Canada and the United States. [1]
A flea can jump 60 times its length in height and 110 times its length in distance, equivalent to a 1.8 m (6 ft) adult human jumping 110 m (361 ft) vertically and 200 m (656 ft) horizontally. Rarely do fleas jump from dog to dog. Most flea infestations come from newly developed fleas from the pet's environment. [6]
Although many species of flea require a blood meal before they can copulate, that is not the case with Ceratophyllus gallinae. [6] As with other fleas, the life cycle consists of eggs, the larval stages, a pupal stage and an adult stage. [7] The larvae have chewing jaws and it is only the adult fleas that are capable of biting the host.

One study looked at several species of flea beetles, including the Altica cirsicola species, and described the jumping mechanism of these beetles to be very efficient. [4] This study even applied the knowledge gained from the flea beetles to create a preliminary design for a bionic leg that can jump. [4] Flea beetles can also walk normally and fly.
