Published Taxon Remarks:
Ledger (1980) queried the validity of Sub-Saharan records of this louse. Definitions of species in the host genus Gerbillus are unclear (Musser and Carleton, 1993: 548); voucher specimens should be reidentified after a systematic revision of Gerbillus becomes available. [ex. Durden, L. A., Musser, G. G. 1994. Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History 218: 1-90]
Reference Title:
The Anoplura of african rodents and insectivores
Taxon Citation Remarks:
Citation information points to the most recent interpretation of the taxon name (not the original, which is absent from the sucking louse checklist).
