Feather holes of rock ptarmigan are associated with amblyceran chewing lice [PDF]
Wildlife Biology, 2017 Feather holes have traditionally been suggested to be feeding traces of chewing lice (mallophagans). There is controversy whether mallophagans are the real source of feather holes.

Biogeography Explains Cophylogenetic Patterns in Toucan Chewing Lice [PDF]
Systematic Biology, 2004 Historically, comparisons of host and parasite phylogenies have concentrated on cospeciation. However, many of these comparisons have demonstrated that the phylogenies of hosts and parasites are seldom completely congruent, suggesting that phenomena other than cospeciation play an important role in the evolution of host-parasite assemblages.

Low levels of chicken body louse (Menacanthus stramineus) infestations affect chicken welfare in a cage-free housing system [PDF]
Parasites & VectorsBackground The chicken body louse is an obligate ectoparasite of domestic chickens. Chicken body lice feed on feathers, and infestation with this louse is linked to decreases in egg production, hen weight, and feed conversion efficiency.

Chewing lice (Insecta: Phthiraptera) associated with vertebrates in Mexico
Zootaxa, 2018 The chewing lice (Insecta: Phthiraptera: Amblycera and Ischnocera) of Mexico have been little studied and many publications include isolated records. This paper summarizes current knowledge of chewing lice recorded from Mexico resulting from an exhaustive search of the literature published from 1866 to 2017.

Population Dynamics of Chewing Lice (Phthiraptera) Infesting Birds (Aves) [PDF]
Annual Review of Entomology, 2021 In the past 25 years, studies on interactions between chewing lice and their bird hosts have increased notably. This body of work reveals that sampling of live avian hosts, collection of the lice, and the aggregated distributions of louse infestations pose challenges for assessing louse populations.
