Drastic variation in mitochondrial genome organization between two congeneric species of bird lice (Philopteridae: Ibidoecus)

open access: goldBMC Genomics
The over 4,100 species of bird lice are classified into 214 genera in the parvorders Amblycera and Ischnocera. Congeneric species of bird lice usually share much similarity in morphology and in mitochondrial (mt) genome organization.

A revision of the genusNaubates(Insecta: Phthiraptera: Philopteridae)∗ [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, 2002
Abstract Ten species of the genus Naubates Bedford, 1930 are recognised, including two new species: N. (Guenterion) ultimae n. sp. from Pterodroma ultima, and N. (Guenterion) lessonii n. sp. from Pterodroma lessonii. The genus Naubates is subdivided into two subgenera: the subgenus Naubates sensu stricto containing three species, and the new subgenus ...

Two new species of chewing lice in the genus Melinirmus (Phthiraptera, Ischnocera, Philopteridae) from Australian honeyeaters (Passeriformes, Meliphagidae) [PDF]

open access: diamondTravaux du Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle “Grigore Antipa”
Two new species of the genus Melinirmus Mey, 2017, are described from Australian honeyeaters (Meliphagidae). These are: Melinirmus coromandelica n. sp. ex Ptilotula penicillatus penicillatus (Gould, 1837) and Melinirmus palmai n. sp.

Mitochondrial genomes of Columbicola feather lice are highly fragmented, indicating repeated evolution of minicircle-type genomes in parasitic lice [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
Most animals have a conserved mitochondrial genome structure composed of a single chromosome. However, some organisms have their mitochondrial genes separated on several smaller circular or linear chromosomes.

A critically co-endangered feather louse Forficuloecus pezopori n. sp. (Phthiraptera: Philopteridae) detected through conservation intervention for the western ground parrot Pezoporus flaviventris (Psittaculidae)

open access: goldInternational Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife
Forficuloecus pezopori Martin, Keatley & Ash n. sp. from the western ground parrot Pezoporus flaviventris North, 1911 (Psittaculidae) is proposed based on combined evidence from morphology and COI mitochondrial DNA.

Hitchhiking into the future on a fly: Toward a better understanding of phoresy and avian louse evolution (Phthiraptera) by screening bird carcasses for phoretic lice on hippoboscid flies (Diptera)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 47, Issue 3, Page 420-429, July 2022., 2022
Based on 254 published records, we use species interaction networks to illustrate what is known about avian louse hitchhiking on hippoboscid flies. We then propose a protocol for obtaining new records by finding flies carrying lice on bird carcasses followed by species‐level sorting of all flies and lice with cost‐effective NGS barcodes.
