Philopterus sp.
status

 

Philopterus sp.

Host: Acrocephalus scirpaceus (Hermann, 1804) .

Ref.: this paper.

Location: Gbelce, 24 Apr. 2008, 18 Apr. 2009 ( VETUNI) .

Notes: Mey (1977) recorded an undescribed species of Philopterus from Acrocephalus scirpaceus . Since we found only one nymph and one female on this host, we cannot exclude the possibility that these lice are contaminants from another bird handled at the same time. However, as we did not examine any known host of Philopterus while collecting these specimens, we believe the two lice are natural and regular parasites on A. scirpaceus .
