Chilean references: Carriker (1964); Camousseight (1980); Palma & Pilgrim (1984: 150); Sepúlveda et al. (1997).

Other significant references: KÉler (1957b); Timmermann (1965); Palma (1996: 187); Price et al. (2003: 188); Page et al. (2004: 642, 648); Hänel & Palma (2007: 113, 124, 129); Palma & Peck (2013: 40); Pilgrim & Palma (1982); Palma (2010: 408); Palma (2017).

Remarks: Palma & Pilgrim (1984: 149) included a complete synonymy for H. ferox , which was misidentified for many years due to lack of type material. Further, Palma & Pilgrim (1984: 150) concluded that the holotype male of Harrisoniella chilensis is a straggler from a small albatross ( Thalassarche sp. ) because its host, Fulmarus glacialoides , is not known to be parasitised by any species of Harrisoniella .
