Since I am at the ASTMH annual meeting at the moment, I will keep this case short and sweet:

A flea! Without closer examination of the specimen, I'm not sure what type of flea it is, however. Could it be a Ctenocephalides species?

A flea but more detailed view is needed to identify species
I must have missed this one because I was at the ASTMH meeting too!
