Bob´s Checklists of Chewing Lice

  • Introduction

  • Checklist of Birds, by species, based on Howard and Moore, 3rd. edition.
    All bird species are listed. No bird subspecies are listed. Chewing lice recorded for each species have been verified by use of The Chewing Lice World Checklist, Price, Hellenthal and Palma, 2003. Louse taxonomy, while generally agreeing with Price, Hellenthal and Palma differs in that subspecies are elevated to species. Links to lice taxonomy will be established at a later date to bring forward the louse nomenclature.

  • Checklist of Mammals, by species, based on Wilson and Reeder, 2nd. edition (1992). All mammal species, but no subspecies are listed. Chewing lice recorded for each species have been verified by use of The Chewing Lice World Checklist, Price, Hellenthal and Palma, 2003. Louse taxonomy, while generally agreeing with Price, Hellenthal and Palma differs in that subspecies are elevated to species. Links to lice taxonomy will be established at a later date to bring forward the louse nomenclature.

  • Check List of Mallophaga. Hopkins & Clay, 1952 and addenda

    or
    as a pdf file with bookmarks to valid genera arranged alphabetically as published or

    These are large files please be patient.
