The eggshell morphology of Rallicola unguiculatus Piaget, 1880 (Ischnocera: Phthiraptera). [PDF]
J Parasit Dis, 2017 The egg chorion of the greater coucal louse, Rallicola unguiculatus bears hexagonal ridges. The hat shaped opercular disc also shows hexagonal marks. Twenty to twenty-three button shaped micropyles occur along the opercular rim. The stigma remained obscured under the cementing material.

International Journal of Zoology, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011 Nest ectoparasites have been linked previously to patterns of nest‐site choice and breeding success in birds. Recent research has shown nestboxes facing south‐southwest are occupied less frequently by great tits (Parus major) than identical boxes facing other directions, and are associated with reduced offspring condition.

Diversity of Chewing Lice (Insecta: Phthiraptera) in the Indo‐Burma Biodiversity Hotspot
Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.The diversity of birds is well documented globally. However, the same attention has generally not been given to their parasites, which comprise many times their diversity. Here, we present data from a large‐scale survey of chewing lice found infesting birds in the Indo‐Burma biodiversity hotspot of western Yunnan, China.

Phylogenomics reveals the timescale of diversification in Amblycera
Systematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 540-553, July 2025.Next‐generation sequencing changes the higher taxonomy of Amblycera (Insecta: Phthiraptera). Families Trimenoponidae and Gyropidae merge into Gyropidae; Trinotonidae is a separate family; several genera are paraphyletic. The ancestral host of Amblycera was likely a bird; Amblycera switched to mammals twice.

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 112-117, March 2024.African savanna elephant lice and Asian elephant lice differ by ~17% in cox1 gene sequence and by >23% in combined sequences of 23 mitochondrial genes. Mitochondrial gene sequence divergences between African and Asian elephant lice are 3.76–4.6 times higher than that between their hosts.
