:''For sexual anthropophilia in animals, see Imprinting (psychology)#Sexual imprinting.'' In parasitology, anthropophilia, from the Greek ἅνθρωπος (anthrōpos, "human being") and φιλία (philia, "friendship" or "love"), is a preference of a parasite or dermatophyte for humans over other animals.〔Braun-Falco, Otto (2000). ''Dermatology'' Springer, ISBN 9783540594529〕〔Mouchet, Jean; Carnevale, Pierre; Manguin, Sylvie (2008). ''Biodiversity of Malaria in the World.'' John Libbey Eurotext, ISBN 9782742006168〕 The related term ''endophilia'' refers specifically to a preference for being in human habitats, especially inside dwellings.〔Dronamraju, Krishna R.; Arese, Paolo (2005). ''Malaria: Genetic and Evolutionary Aspects.'' Birkhäuser , ISBN 9780387282947〕 The term ''zoophilia'', in this context, describes animals which prefer non-human animals for nourishment. Most usage of the term ''anthropophilia'' refers to hematophagous insects (see ''Anopheles'') that prefer human blood〔Maggenti, A.R. & Gardner, S. 2005. Online Dictionary of Invertebrate Zoology. http://digitalcommons.unl.edu/onlinedictinvertzoology/〕 over animal blood (zoophily, but see other meanings of zoophily). Examples other than haematophagy include geckoes that live close to humans,〔Ineich, I. 1992. Parthenogenesis in the Gekkonidae (Reptilia, Lacertilia): Origin and evolution. Bull. Soc. Zool. Fr.-Evol. Zool. 117(3), 253-266.〕 pied crows (''Corvus albus''),〔LeCorre, M. & Jouventin, P. 1997. Ecological significance and conservation priorities of Europa Island (western Indian Ocean), with special reference to seabirds. Rev. Ecol. (Terre Vie) 52(3), 205-220.〕 cockroaches, and many others. In the study of malaria and its disease vectors, researchers make the distinction between anthropophilic mosquitoes and other types as part of disease eradiction efforts. Anthropic organisms are organisms that show anthropophily, where the adjective ''synanthropic '' refers to organisms that live close to human settlements and houses,〔Lincoln, R.J., Boxshall, G.A. & Clark, P.F. 1998. A dictionary of ecology, evolution, and systematics. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge; New York.〕 and eusynathropic to those that live within human housing.〔 ==See also== *Human-animal breastfeeding 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anthropophilia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
