Congruence and cospeciation: morphological and molecular phylogenetics of the Amblycera (Phthiraptera) [PDF]
The first phylogeny reconstructed solely for amblyceran genera is presented. This study, based on an extensive comparison of adult morphology and a rigorous cladistic analysis, considers generic exemplars from 4 families of amblyceran lice (Menoponidae ...

Codistributed Lineages of Feather Lice Show Different Phylogenetic Patterns [PDF]
Recent molecular phylogenies have suggested that hawks (Accipitridae) and falcons (Falconidae) form 2 distantly related groups within birds. Avian feather lice have often been used as a model for comparing host and parasite phylogenies, and in some cases
