Holotype ♂ presumed lost (see below).

Type host: Geospiza fuliginosa Gould, 1837 in error (see Hopkins & Clay 1952: 278).

Galápagos host: Phoebastria irrorata (Salvin, 1883) .

Galápagos locality: Isla Española.

Galápagos references: Kellogg & Kuwana (1902); Kellogg (1908: 42); Thompson (1939); Clay (1940a); Kéler (1957a); Linsley & Usinger (1966).

Other significant references: Timmermann (1965); Pilgrim & Palma (1982: 7); Price et al. (2003).

Material examined: 70 males, 135 females and 41 nymphs (5 samples, MONZ) .

Remarks: The single male (the holotype) described by Kellogg & Kuwana (1902: 480) was not located in the EMEC or in other collections holding Kellogg material; therefore, it is presumed lost. In addition to the population of Paraclisis miriceps parasitising Phoebastria irrorata in the Galápagos Islands, there have been a number of records of this louse species from Macronectes giganteus (Gmelin, 1789) in New Zealand ( Pilgrim & Palma 1982: 7).
