There has been much argument about the phylogenetic relationships of the four suborders of lice (Insecta: Phthiraptera). Lyal\&$\#$39;s study of the morphology of lice indicated that chewing/biting lice (Mallophaga) are paraphyletic with respect to sucking lice (Anoplura). To test this hypothesis we inferred the phylogeny of 33 species of lice from small subunit (SSU) rRNA sequences (18S rRNA). Liposcelis sp. from the Liposcelididae (Psocoptera) was used for outgroup reference. Phylogenetic relationships among the four suborders of lice inferred from these sequences were the same as those inferred from morphology. The Amblycera is apparently the sister-group to all other lice whereas the Rhynchophthirina is apparently sister to the Anoplura; these two suborders are sister to the Ischnocera, i.e. (Amblycera (Ischnocera (Anoplura, Rhynchophthirina))). Thus, the Mallophaga (Amblycera, Ischnocera, Rhynchophthirina) is apparently paraphyletic with respect to the Anoplura. Our analyses also provide evidence that: (i) each of the three suborders of lice that are well represented in our study (the Amblycera, Ischnocera, and Anoplura) are monophyletic; (ii) the Boopiidae is monophyletic; (iii) the genera Heterodoxus and Latumcephalum (Boopiidae) are more closely related to one another than either is to the genus Boopia (also Boopiidae); (iv) the Ricinidae and Laemobothridae may be sister-taxa; (v) the Philopteridae may be paraphyletic with respect to the Trichodectidae; (vi) the genera Pediculus and Pthirus are more closely related to each other than either is to the genus Pedicinus; and (vii) in contrast to published data for mitochondrial genes, the rates of nucleotide substitution in the SSU rRNA of lice are not higher than those of other insects, nor do substitution rates in the suborders differ substantially from one another.

Knowledge of morphometric characteristics of Heterodoxus spiniger was widened on the basis of material collected from the dog (Canis familiaris) from India. Study, mostly by scanning electron microscope, concerned the males, females and nymphs of H. spiniger. The functional role of some elements, particularly observed surface ultrastructures, has been pointed out. The differences between postembrional stages were determined as well as literature on H. spiniger were critically analysed.

Relationships between the strongyloid nematodes Rugopharynx delta, R. zeta, R. omega, R. longibursaris, R. mawsonae and R. sigma, all from macropodid marsupials, were investigated using allozyme data. The phylogenetic trees derived from the electrophoretic data set were congruent with those of the hosts and were consistent with the hypothesis that the species complex originated in pademelons of the genus Thylogale and diversified in rock-wallabies (Petrogale spp.) and scrub wallabies of the subgenus Notamacropus. Host switching is evident only between closely related macropodid taxa.

The phylogenetic position of the Heterodoxus octoseriatus group is inferred from morphological characters. Two character states support monophyly of this group. Another indicates that its sister-group is a group of 11 other Heterodoxus species (here called the H. calabyi group), that infest at least seven other genera of macropodid marsupials. Fourteen potential apomorphies, associated with the male and female genitalia, are identified. Evident rapid and divergent evolution of the genitalia, however, precludes determination of their polarity by comparison with an out-group (the sister-group). Consequently, phylogeny in the H. octoseriatus group is inferred from the close similarity of morphological characters. In light of the phylogenetic analysis and a phenogram, speciation and the evolution of morphological characters in the H. octoseriatus group is discussed.

The complete arrangement of genes in the mitochondrial (mt) genome is known for 12 species of insects, and part of the gene arrangement in the mt genome is known for over 300 other species of insects. The arrangement of genes in the mt genome is very conserved in insects studied, since all of the protein-coding and rRNA genes and most of the tRNA genes are arranged in the same way. We sequenced the entire mt genome of the wallaby louse, Heterodoxus macropus, which is 14,670 bp long and has the 37 genes typical of animals and some noncoding regions. The largest noncoding region is 73 bp long (93\% A+T), and the second largest is 47 bp long (92\% A+T). Both of these noncoding regions seem to be able to form stem-loop structures. The arrangement of genes in the mt genome of this louse is unlike that of any other animal studied. All tRNA genes have moved and/or inverted relative to the ancestral gene arrangement of insects, which is present in the fruit fly Drosophila yakuba. At least nine protein-coding genes (atp6, atp8, cox2, cob, nad1-nad3, nad5, and nad6) have moved; moreover, four of these genes (atp6, atp8, nad1, and nad3) have inverted. The large number of gene rearrangements in the mt genome of H. macropus is unprecedented for an arthropod.

The louse family Boopidae, parasitic on marsupials in Australia and New Guinea, is revised on the basis of much new material from wild hosts. Important morphological features, particularly the genitalia, and their taxonomic value are reviewed. A key is given to the genera of the Boopidae and those of the most closely related family, the Trimenoponidae, which occurs on Neotropical marsupials and cavimorph rodents. Seven genera (Boopia, Phacogalia, Heterodoxus, Paraboopia, Macropophila, Paraheterodoxus, Latumcephalum) and 35 species of Boopidae are recognised. Keys are given to the species, and all species are described and figured. Fourteen species are described as new, two in Boopia, seven in Heterodoxus three in Macropophila, and two in Paraheterodoxus. The majority of boopids are parasites of Macropodidae but a few species are found on members of the families Dasyuridae, Peramelidae, and Vombatidae.

In continuation of my papers on the bird infesting Mallophaga of Japan, I propose here to give short descriptions of all Japanese forms of Amblycerous Mallophaga. The specimens on which the present paper is based, were taken mostly from birds and mammals of Japan proper and a small part from birds of Formosa, Micronesia and Caroline Islands. The collection includes 63 species, taken from 74 species of birds and two species of mammals. Of the above number of Mallophaga species, 17 are apparently new to science. I have been led to errect six new genera for the reception of some of the species. All the aforesaid 63 species are referable to five families and eighteen genera. A list of the parasites and their hosts is as follows: [Table of hosts and parasites, key to genera]

Most of the genetic variation in the H. octoseriatus group is present as fixed gene differences between species that have been described on morphological criteria. Based on allozymes, the taxonomic status of some species was challenged. There was insufficient evidence, however, to demonstrate that these were not good biological species. Overall, the limited intraspecific variation was present as fixed gene differences amoung lice from different hosts and from different colonies of host.; heterozygotes were rare. Two predictions derived from Price\&$\#$39;s model of parasite evolution were met: populations of lice were genetically homogenous and , where genetic markers were present we found substancial genetic variation amoung populations. These data contrast for those of endoparasitic helminths, where, in general the amount of genetic variation is similar to that of free-living invertebrates.

Phenetic and phylogenetic relationships in the Heterodoxus octoseriatus group of species were explored with data from 21 putative allozyme loci. The phenetic analyses and some of the cladistic analyses (maximum parsimony) were consistant with a phenetic analysis of morphological characters in that they indicated in two main lines of evolution in the H. octoseriatus group. These culminated in two groups of species: (i) H. harrisoni, H. hughendensis, H. closei, H. maynesi, H.. octoseriatus, H. lesouefi, H. briscoei and H. insulatus, and (ii) H. murrayi, H. insularis and H. orarius. The allozyme and morphological analysis, however, differed in the arrangement of species within the two main groups. Other cladistic analysis revealed the first group of lice, but not the second group. A hypothesis proposed for the evolution of the H. octoseriatus group involves widespread host switching followed by the expansion of the geographic ranges of some lice at the expense of others. The evolution of host-parasite associations amoung rock-wallabies and lice from the H. octoseriatus group demonstrates how tangled the history of host-parasite associations may become.

Species of the Heterodoxus octoseriatus group infest five species, comprising eight chrosome races, of Petrogale in Queensland and Northern New South Wales, Australia. The precise host and geographic ranges of the 11 species of the H. octoseriatus group were determined. Individual hosts and host populations were infested by single species of lice only. The geographic ranges of lice were discrete. In some cases the geographic ranges of louse species and their hosts were approximately congruent. In others they were completly incongruent and it was unclear which species originally infested which hosts or even which was the most recent colonizer. In at least one case, expansion of the geographic range of one species of louse apparently led to fragmentation of the range of another and subsequently, to allopatric speciation.

The geographic distributions of alleles at 11 gene loci in Heterodoxus octoseriatus were examined and found not to be random. Rather, there were at least two geographic patterns, one of which approximated the geographic distributions of the hosts Petrogale p. penicillata and P. p. herberti. Two explanations for the complex geographic arrangement of alleles and the unusually high level of intraspecific variation in H. octoseratus diverged in allopatry, and that subsequent hybredization of the new taxa led to differential introgression of the alleles. Secondly that H. octoseratus inhabits heterogeneous environments and that the intraspecific variation is a direct result of natural selection. The likelihood that evidence for divergence followed by hybredistation will be found in other species in the H. octoseratus group is discussed.

Lice are highly successful ectoparasites. Most species of mammal and bird are infested by at least 1 but up to 6 species of lice. Current opinion is that lice evolved from free-living Psocoptera (booklice, barklice and psocids). It is generally agreed that there are four main groups of lice: Anoplura, Amblycera, Ischnocera, and Rhyncophthirina. In contrast there is no agreement on the phylogenetic relationships of these groups and their classification. In particular, there is much debate over the validity of the taxon Mallophaga, which is almost certainly paraphyletic. For many years the sister group of the Boopiidae, which almost certainly exclusively infest Australian marsupials, was thought to be a group of lice that now infest marsupials in South America. This, however, is almost certainly incorrect; the sister group of the boopidae almost certainly contains bird infesting lice from the Menoponidae (Amblycera). Thus, menoponid lice transfered from birds to mammals and from these arose the Boopiidae. Transfers of lice between mammals and birds have occured on other occasions during the evolution of the lice.; 2 of the 4 main groups of lice, the Ischnocera and the Amblycera, contain families that infest birds and families that infest mammals. Strict cospeciation and coevolution was thought to predominate amoung the lice; however, detailed studies show this to be incorrect. Consequently the axiom that lice and their hosts invariably coevolve should be abandoned. Ironically biologists may learn more about the evolutionary biology of hosts when host switching has occured. Some evidence exists for competition between species of lice; this interaction may determine whether or not the transfer of a species of louse to an atypical host (a potential host switch) is successful. Thus the extinction of populations of lice (that result in uninfested hosts) may fascilitate host switching and perhaps the evolution of new taxa of lice. In contrast the extinction of hosts unfortunately often leads to the extinction of species of lice.
