Variation of mitochondrial minichromosome composition in Hoplopleura lice (Phthiraptera: Hoplopleuridae) from rats [PDF]
Background The family Hoplopleuridae contains at least 183 species of blood-sucking lice, which widely parasitize both mice and rats. Fragmented mitochondrial (mt) genomes have been reported in two rat lice (Hoplopleura kitti and H.

The first description of the nymphal stages of Hoplopleura longula (Psocodea: Anoplura: Hoplopleuridae) from the harvest mouse Micromys minutus (Rodentia: Muridae) [PDF]
Despite the widespread belief that an extensive body of knowledge exists for the sucking lice Anoplura, some of their common, Eurasian or even cosmopolitan species still lack ordered taxonomic descriptions, especially those of their nymphal stages.

Description of the Nymphal Stages of Hoplopleura affinis (Anoplura: Hoplopleuridae) from the Striped Field Mouse Apodemus agrarius with a Global Checklist of Hoplopleura Species from the Genus Apodemus [PDF]
The genus Hoplopleura is the most speciose genus of sucking lice observed parasitizing rodents and lagomorphs (pikas). Despite the fact that the majority of Anoplura are believed to be monoxenic, many species within Hoplopleura may be oligoxenic.

First description of nymphal stages of Hoplopleura edentula (Anoplura: Hoplopleuridae) and a global checklist of the Hoplopleura associated with Clethrionomys [PDF]
Abstract We present the first record of the characteristics of the three nymphal stages of Hoplopleura edentula, one of the common Eurasian species of the genus Hoplopleura. Lastly, a list of all species of Hoplopleura parasitizing the host genus Clethrionomys is provided.

Atopophthirus Emersoni, New Genus and New Species (Anoplura: Hoplopleuridae) from Petaurista Elegans (Rodentia: Sciuridae), With a Key to the Genera of Enderleinellinae1 [PDF]
This paper presents the description of a new genus and new species of sucking louse, Atopophthirus emersoni , collected from the Lesser Giant Flying Squirrel, Petaurista elegans Muller, in Johore, Mersing, West Malaysia. Male, female and 2nd nymphal instar are described and illustrated.

Variation in mitochondrial minichromosome composition among Hoplopleura lice (Phthiraptera: Hoplopleuridae) from rats [PDF]
Abstract Background The family Hoplopleuridae contains at least 183 species of blood-sucking lice, which widely parasitize both mice and rats. Fragmented mitochondrial (mt) genomes have been reported in two rat lice (Hoplopleura kitti and H. akanezumi) from this family, but some minichromosomes were unidentified in their mt genomes.

Fragmented mitochondrial genomes are present in both major clades of the blood-sucking lice (suborder Anoplura): evidence from two Hoplopleura rodent lice (family Hoplopleuridae) [PDF]
BackgroundThe suborder Anoplura contains 540 species of blood-sucking lice that parasitize over 840 species of eutherian mammals. Fragmented mitochondrial (mt) genomes have been found in the lice of humans, pigs, horses and rats from four families ...
