Composition and distribution of lice (Insecta: Phthiraptera) on Colombian and Peruvian birds: New data on louse-host association in the Neotropics [PDF]
Biodiversity Data Journal, 2018 The diversity of permanent ectoparasites is likely underestimated due to the difficulty of collecting samples. Lice (Insecta: Phthiraptera) are permanent ectoparasites of birds and mammals; there are approximately 5,000 species described and many more ...

Drastic variation in mitochondrial genome organization between two congeneric species of bird lice (Philopteridae: Ibidoecus) [PDF]
BMC GenomicsThe 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.

Systematic 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.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 5, May 2022., 2022 Ego net analysis is introduced as a new tool to ecology, describing the network context of a single bird species and its interacting species. During the last 200 years, the ego net of this bird has passed two major disturbances, seal hunting and cat introduction.
