TABLE 2. Species of Oxylipeurus -complex parasitic on hosts of the “ Phasianidae III ” group [sensu Kimball et al. (2021)]. Two genus-groups are known: Reticulipeurus (Forcipurellus) and Megalipeurus -group, with some overlap in their host associations, which are listed separately. Dashes (“---“) denote that no louse species belonging to this group is known from this host. Host taxonomy follows Clements et al. (2021). Host subspecies are given only when they are known to be parasitised by at least one species of the Oxylipeurus -complex. Undescribed species discussed here or listed by Price et al. (2003) are included for completeness. Price et al. (2003: 204) also listed several hosts for Megalipeurus unicolor (Piaget, 1880) [under Oxylipeurus]; specimens from some of these hosts have been examined and found not conspecific with M. unicolor; hence, these are here listed as unidentified species. Species included in Megalipeurus by Gustafsson et al. (2020b) are also found on hosts that do not belong to the Phasianidae III group.
