Abstract: The newly described species Brueelia wallacei n. sp. lives on Fairy-bluebirds (Irenidae) in the Oriental region: B. wallacei on the Asian Fairy-bluebird, Irena puella crinigera (northern Pagai, Mentawai Islands, Sumatra) and B. wallacei ssp. on the Philippine Fairy-bluebird Irena cyanogastra melanochlamys (Basilan, Sulu Archipelago, Philippines). This first part of the paper is followed by comments on questions of nomenclature, taxonomy, morphology, faunistics, and ecology, as well as the history of collection and of research on the genus Brueelia. Our comments are concerned with Brueelia sensu lato and the Brueelia complex as presented in »The chewing lice – world checklist and biological overview« (Price et al 2003). The genus Brueelia sensu lato, with currently almost 300 monoxerous species (doubtless a fraction of the anticipated total), is found world-wide, mainly on the Passeriformes (on 61.5% of the 96 families) but also on some non-passeriform families (Cuculidae, Trogonidae, Momotidae, Meropidae, Ramphastidae, and Picidae). Brueelia s. l. belongs to the nirmid ecotype, whose
representatives (at least those found so far) inhabit and lay their eggs on the body feathers, predominantly breast, belly, and flanks. It is not yet possible to say whether members of Brueelia can be called generalists. These lice have a variety of niches. For example, the genus Turdinirmus is regularly found on the secondary feathers whereas Osculonirmus prefers the scapulars and Meropsiella lays its eggs on the wing coverts, although Meropsiella otherwise inhabits body feathers. Brueelia s. l. is likely polyphyletic, at least this is clearly suggested not only by morphological and ecological data, but also by molecular-genetic findings. Around 20 other genera (brought together in the Brueelia complex) appear to be more or less closely related to Brueelia s. str. The following taxa in the Brueelia s. l. conglomerate can be isolated: Motmotnirmus nov. gen. pro Nirmus marginellus Nitzsch in Giebel, 1866 ex Momotus momota from South America and Nitzschinirmus nov. gen. pro Nitzschinirmus menuraelyrae (Coinde, 1859) ssp. ex Menura alberti from Australia. A neotype is designated for Nirmus marginellus Nitzsch in Giebel, 1866. The genus Maculinirmus Złotorzycka, 1964, which is also close to Brueelia, is revalidated and a neotype is established for its generotype, Nirmus mundus Nitzsch in Giebel, 1866 ex Oriolus oriolus. The true host of 16 Brueelia species is unknown. 

Zusammenfassung: Die neu beschriebene Art Brueelia wallacei n. sp. lebt in der Orientalis auf Feenvögeln (Irenidae): B. wallacei auf dem Türkisfeenvogel Irena puella crinigera (Nord-Pagai, Mentawai Inseln, Sumatra) und B. wallacei ssp. auf dem Kobaltfeenvogel Irena cyanogastra melanochlamys (Basilan, Sulu-Archipel, Philippinen). An diesen ersten Teil der Arbeit schließen sich Kommentare über offene Fragen in Nomenklatur, Taxonomie, Morphologie, Faunistik und Ökologie sowie Sammlungs- und Erforschungsgeschichte an. Sie betreffen Brueelia sensu lato und den Brueelia-Komplex, wie sie sich in »The chewing lice - world checklist and biological overview« (Price et al. 2003) widergespiegelt finden. Die weltweit hauptsächlich auf Passeriformes (61,5 % der 96 Familien) und ferner auf einigen nonpasseriformen Familien (Cuculidae, Trogonidae, Momotidae, Meropidae, Ramphastidae und Picidae) vorkommende Gattung Brueelia sensu lato zählt inzwischen fast 300 vorwiegend monoxene Arten. Das ist ein Bruchteil des tatsächlich zu erwartenden Artenbestandes. Brueelia s. l. gehört zum nirmiden Ökotyp, deren Vertreter (soweit bisher nachgewiesen) im Rumpfgefieder, vor allem Brust, Bauch und Flanken, leben und auch dort ihre Eier ablegen. Es ist nicht möglich, Brueelia als Generalisten zu bezeichnen. Einige Gruppen haben sich in anderer Weise eingenischt. Turdinirmus wird regelmäßig auch auf Armschwingen festgestellt, Osculonirmus bevorzugt Schulterfittiche und Meropsiella legt ihre Eier auf Flügeldecken ab, lebt aber ansonsten im Rumpfgefieder. Ohne Zweifel ist Brueelia s. l. polyphyletisch, was nicht nur morphologische und ökologische Daten, sondern auch molekulargenetische Befunde deutlich aufzeigen. Etwa 20 andere Genera (zusammengefasst als Brueelia-Komplex) scheinen ihr mehr oder weniger nahezustehen. Aus dem Konglomerat von Brueelia s. l. werden herausgelöst: Motmotnirmus nov. gen. pro Nirmus marginellus Nitzsch in Giebel, 1866 ex Momotus momota aus Südamerika und Nitzschinirmus nov. gen. pro Nitzschinirmus menuraelyrae (Coinde, 1859) ssp. ex Menura alberti aus Australien. Für »Nirmus marginellus Nitzsch in Giebel, 1866« wird ein Neotypus designiert. Die ebenfalls Brueelia nahestehende Gattung Maculinirmus Złotorzycka, 1964 wird revalidiert und für ihren Generotypus, Nirmus mundus Nitzsch in Giebel, 1866 ex Oriolus oriolus, ein Neotypus festgelegt. Von 16 Brueelia-Arten ist der tatsächliche Wirt unbekannt.

The morphological characters of the ischnoceran genus Bothriometopus occurring on Anhimidae in the Neotropic only are studied in a comparitive study. Bothriometopus show some morphological affinities with both Ornithobius Denny, 1842 (on Anaidae: Anserinae and Tadorninae) and Acidoproctus Piaget, 1878 (on Anseranatidae and Anatidae: Dendrocygninae, Stictonettinae and Anatinae). Adult and preadult stages of the two included species, Bothriometops macrocnemis (Burmeister, 1838) (genero type) and B. simillimus (Giebel, 1874) are fully described and illustrated, along with comments on their feeding, dispersion on their host bodies, prevalence and geographical distribution. General remarks on morphological relationships of the three cited genera and host distribution are also given.

Nymphs of successive generations of Menopon gallinaeI (L. 1758), parasite on Gallus gallus f. domestica, highly resemble to each other from the moment of emergence and show the number of abdominal segments characteristic of adult form. Apart from evident differences in body size, the relative size of abdomen (head, thorax and abdomen ratio), rising chitinization of the cuticle, the succesive nymph stages can also be distinguished on the basis of progression of chaetotaxy. Furthermore, brush (spiniform setae) on fourth sterna and spiracular aperture become evident in third instar nymphs.

Populations of poultry lice of five species Eomenacanthus stranineus (Nitzsch), Menopon gallinae, (L.), Goniocotes gallinae (De Geer), Oulocrepis dissimilis (Denny), and Lipeurus caponis (L.) from hens (Gallus gallus f.dom.) from Polond (Lower Silesia) and India (Dehra-Dun province) served as model material for comprehensive studies in order to check if and how spatial (geographic) distance of hostsreflects morphological differentiations. The measurements of 60 males and 60 females chosen at random of each species were analysed. Each metrical character was characterised by the arithmetic mean, standard deviation and coefficient of variation. the significant differences among the means were tested by student test. Lice populations from Poland, particularly belonging to Ischnocera (Goniodidae and Lipeurudae) had greater body sizes and smaller interspecific variabilitythan Indian ones. Coefficients of variation of male morphometric characters, in particular from India was far lower than females. In both sexes of European and Indian members of Amblycera (Menopon gallinae and Eomenacanthus stramineus) the ranges of variation, first of all head dimensions were nearly equal. However, means of all examined characters of species, except for M. gallinae were statistically significant. Among Goniodidae (Goniocotes gallinae and Oulocrepis dissimilis) the coefficient of difference (CD) established by MAYR as a measure of subspecies differentiatuion was higher than 1.28. It corresponds with great dismemberment of that phylogenetically young family and their great plasticity.

The goniodid chewing lice (Goniodidae) of the suborder Ischnocera inhabiting the megapodes (Megapodiidae) constitute a heterogeneous species ensemble. A total of 18 taxa has been described so far which, on the basis of morphological characteristics, can be assigned to 9 defined and illustrated genera. Apart from Goniocotes BURMEISTER (1 sp. on Macrocephalon maleo), the members of all these genera are found only on megapodes. These are (number of species in brackets): Leipoiella MEY (I), Megatheliella MEY (l), Maleophilus nov. gen. (at least l), Maleoicus nov. gen. ( 2 spp., 4 sspp.), Euligoniodes nov. gen. (1), Homocerus KÉLER (6), Weelahia nov. gen. (2), and Lobicrotaphus nov. gen. (1). Their host-dependent distribution is described. Remarks on the genera and species draw attention to gaps in the present knowledge as well as probable intergeneric relationships, and contain parasitophyletic deductions. It is shown that Aurinirmus TENDEIRO, 1983 is a objectiv synonym of Homocerus KÉLER, 1939. The type host of Maleoicus m. minor (PIAGET) is not Megapodius r. reinwardt DUMONT but probably M. decollatus OUSTALET. The species-dependent distributions of Maleoicus minor sensu lato, and of M. biordinatus sensu lato show that a western and an eastern group of the host genus Megapodius can be distinguished. The females of Euligoniodes ocrea (PIAGET) is described for the first time, and its type host affiliation to Eulipoa wallacei, in doubt until now, is confirmed. The males of Goniocotes pallidiflavus PIAGET is illustrated for the first time. In the appended host-parasite list, all Phthiraptera (Amblycera and Ischnocera) currently known to inhabit megapodes are set out. Some 'new' records of specimens from old museum skins (in the collection of the Natural History Museum, Rudolstadt), not taxonomically dealt with before, have been integrated into this list. The list makes clear that there are considerable gaps in the recording of all chewing lice groups inhabiting the megapodes, and that the discovery of new taxa must be expected.

Up until the 16th or 17th centuries, the Northern boundary of the breeding range of the Northern bald ibis in Europe was possibly as far North as Thuringian Forest of east central Germany. This proposition is supported by :1. A representation of a Northern bald ibis on the romanesque capital of a column (second half of the 12th century) in the Landgrafenhaus in the Wartburg castle near Eisenach in western Thuringia. A further four representations in the same building can only be tentatively interpreted as being of the species. 2. A water-coloured drawing from the first half of the 17th century, showing an adult Northern bald ibis which had been shot on Southern Thuringia ('on an old ruin', probably near Eishausen in the present district of Hildburghausen). This is the first record of the species for Thuringia. The artist who made this drawing, which is in a collection called 'Painted Birds' in the Gotha engravings gallery, was probably 'H. Löber'. This lifelike drawing is here compared with other historical representations of the Northern bald ibis. It is annotated by Landgraf Friedrich von Hessen (1616-1682). According to this annotations, he has seen a captive bald ibis in Laye (France), where it was known as the 'Corneille de monts Pyrenée´. This is apparently the first definite historical evidence for the occurrence of the Northern bald ibis in France. The mention be the great Swiss naturalist Conrad Gesner of a Northern bald ibis population in Lorraine (treated sceptically by other authorities) therefore appears more plausible. Attention is drawn to the fact that if the Northern bald ibis does indeed become extinct, as looks increasingly likely, then its host specific parasite fauna, including many unknown or little known species, will also disappear forever. Three chewing lice species (Insecta: Phthiraptera; Amblycera and Ischnocera) , illustrated here with brief commentaries, live on the Northern bald ibis: Colpocephalum eremitae, Plegadiphilus geronticus and Ardeicola geronticorum, the last species also being found on the Southern bald Ibis. The chewing lice findings support the view that the nearest living relative of Geronticus eremita is the Southern bald ibis G. calvus of South Africa.

The feather louse genus Cincloecus (Insecta, Phthiraptera, Ischnocera). -The taxonomy and systematics of the feather louse genus Cincloecus Eichler in Zlotorzycka, 1964 (Philopteridae, Philopterinar) is revised. The genus has two species, one with two subspecies: Cincloecus c. cincli (Denny) ex Cinclis cinclus, Cincloecus cincli americanus (Kellogg) ex Cinclis mexicanus and Cincloecus pallasii as well as Cincloecus neotropicalis (Carriker) ex Cinclis leucocephalus and C. schulzi. Feather lice of the genus Cincloecus occur across the whole distributional area of the Cinclidae (a map for the Cinclidae is worked out) and seem to have colonsied the genusCinclus before its radiation. Based on parasitological and paleogeographical arguments the evolution of Cincloecus and its hosts is reconstructed. The age of Cincloecus is at least 25-50 Myr. The knowlege of the ectoparasite fauna of the Cinclidae is reviewed. Further more, mostly based on observations on Cincloecus c. cincli, infomation on the following topics is provided: postembryonal development, hyperparasitic fungi of the genus Trenomyces, behaviour, topography, prevelance and intensity of the feather louse occurance on the birds, population dynamics and teratological structures of some specimens of feather louse.
