	abstract = {<p>One hundred and sixty chickens (Gallus gallus) from 31 small, private backyard flocks in the eastern part of the Czech Republic were examined for chewing lice (Phthiraptera: Amblycera, Ischnocera). At least one species of chewing lice was found on every bird examined. Seven species of chewing lice were identified in all; they had the following prevalences and mean intensities: Goniocotes gallinae (100\%; 110 lice), Menopon gallinae (88\%; 50), Menacanthus stramineus (48\%; 17), Lipeurus caponis (35\%; 12), Menacanthus cornutus (12\%; 9), Cuclotogaster heterographus (1\%; 4) and Goniocotes microthorax (1\%; 3). Just two birds from a single flock were heavily infested with the ischnoceran species G. gallinae.</p>
