The present study was conducted to collect data on the lice species carried on common myna (Acridotheres tristis), which is a bird species that had no natural distribution in Turkey but was later included in the Turkish ornithofauna.
Material and Methods: The bird carcasses were visually inspected and ectoparasite samples were randomly obtained from the back, abdomen, and underwing of each bird using a 4X lens, comb, fine forceps with good light source. The collected lice were placed in tubes containing 70% alcohol and were cleared in 10% KOH. After washing with distilled water, samples were passed through 70%, 80% and 90% alcohol series for three consecutive days, respectively, and were coated with Canadian balm. Lice were identified by light microscopy.
Results: Of the 25 carcasses of common mynas inspected, 19 (76%) birds were found to be infested with lice, including 16 (84.2%) birds infested with both Menacanthus eurysternus and Brueelia chayanh and the remaining 3 (15.8%) birds infested with Brueelia chayanh only. The Menacanthus eurysternus lice were mostly collected from the dorsal region, while the Brueelia chayanh lice were mostly collected from the ventral region in the birds.
Conclusion: To our knowledge, this is the first study to report Brueelia chayanh in common myna in Turkey.

RESUMO
O Brasil abriga uma das mais diversas avifaunas do mundo e suas zonas costeira e marinha constituem habitat para uma grande variedade de espécies de aves pelágicas. As aves podem ser acometidas por grande número de artrópodes parasitos, sendo os piolhos mastigadores os mais comumente descritos. Apesar disso, as informações sobre abundância, prevalência, distribuição e impactos de piolhos em aves marinhas ainda é limitada. Considerando a necessidade de ampliação do conhecimento sobre piolhos de aves marinhas publicados no Brasil, este trabalho teve como objetivo trazer maiores informações sobre a ocorrência destes artrópodes parasitos destas aves na região sudeste do Brasil. O estudo recebeu ectoparasitos de aves que habitam ambientes costeiros de três centros de reabilitação de animais marinhos; o Instituto de Consultoria Ambiental – Serviços em Meio Ambiente (CTA - Meio ambiente), localizado em Araruama-RJ, o Instituto Argonauta Para Conservação Costeira e Marinha (Instituto Argonauta), em Ubatuba-SP e o Instituto de Pesquisas Cananéia (IPeC), em Cananéia-SP. Dentre os ectoparasitos recebidos, os principais achados foram piolhos mastigadores, os quais foram clarificados e montados em lâminas permanentes de microscopia óptica utilizando-se Bálsamo do Canadá Natural. Os piolhos, em sua maioria, foram identificados até espécie, porém em alguns casos chegou-se apenas a gênero. Outros ectoparasitos encontrados foram ácaros plumícolas, carrapatos e moscas da família Hippoboscidae. Com este estudo foram registradas oito novas associações parasito-hospedeiro no mundo, além de dezessete novas ocorrências de espécies de piolhos mastigadores em aves brasileiras, nunca antes reportadas no país, e ainda dezesseis novas ocorrências de piolhos em aves na região sudeste.

Abstract
Brazil is home to one of the most diverse avifauna in the world and its coastal and marine environments are habitat for a wide variety of pelagic bird species. Birds can be affected by a large number of parasitic arthropods, with chewing lice being the most commonly described. Despite that, information on abundance, prevalence, distribution and impact of lice on seabirds is still limited. Considering the need to expand the knowledge on seabird lice published in Brazil, this work aimed to provide more information on the occurrence of these parasitic arthropods of these birds in the southeastern region of Brazil. The study received ectoparasites from birds that inhabit coastal environments from three marine animal rehabilitation centers; the Institute of Enviromental Consulting – Enviroment Services (CTA – Meio Ambiente), located in Araruama-RJ, the Argonauta
Institute for Coastal and Marine Conservation (Instituto Argonauta), in Ubatuba-SP and the Cananéia Research Institute (IPeC), in Cananéia-SP. Among the ectoparasites received, the main findings were chewing lice, which were clarified and mounted on permanent optical microscopy slides using Natural Canada Balsam. Most were identified to species, but in some cases only to genus. Other ectoparasites found were feather mites, ticks and flies of the Hippoboscidae family. With this study, eight new parasite-host associations were registered in the world, in addition to seventeen new occurrences of species of chewing lice in Brazilian birds, never before reported in the country, and also sixteen new occurrences of lice in birds in the Southeast region.

The white-chinned petrel (Procellaria aequinoctialis) is a seabird widely distributed in the circumpolar sub-Antarctic islands and subtropical regions, including Brazilian waters. Among the parasites present on the white-chinned petrel are the chewing lice. This seabird is parasitized by 4 known lice species to date. In this study we evaluated the ectoparasites of 2 white-chinned petrels rescued by an animal rehabilitation center in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and recorded 4 species of chewing lice, of which 3 are already known for this host. One of the species however, has never been recorded in Brazil and another one has never been recorded parasitizing P. aequinoctialis, making this a new host record.

Despite domestic turkey being widespread around the world, many of their associated ectoparasites have not yet been studied in many parts throughout the globe. In Egypt, only two species of lice, Chelopistes meleagridis (Linnaeus, 1758) and Lipeurus caponis (Linnaeus, 1758) have been recorded associated to the turkey while in Saudi Arabia the bird has not previously examined to chewing lice before. These records of chewing lice on the domestic turkey Meleagris gallopavo domesticus (Linnaeus, 1758) in Egypt and Saudi Arabia have been revised. Nine domestic turkeys from two local farms outside Cairo and two birds from the Riyadh bird market, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia were examined for chewing lice. A total of 309 specimens of lice were identified. Two species of lice, Menacanthus stramineus Nitzsch, 1818 and Goniodes gigas (Taschenberg, 1879), were recorded for the first time in Egypt. While only Goniodes gigas consider a new recored for Saudi Arabia parasitic fauna. Three additional species, Menopon gallinae (Linnaeus, 1758) and Goniocotes gallinae (De Geer, 1778), and Lipeurus caponis were also collected. We summarize eight species of chewing lice associated with turkeys and provide an identfication key to them. Also, ecological and taxonomic remarks were provided with images for newly recorded species.
