The collection comprises Phthiraptera belonging to two groups (octoseriatus and ampullatus) of the genus Heterodoxus Le Souéf and Bullen 1902, their distribution being shown on a map. Only the octoseriatus is dealt with taxonomically, seven new species being described. Some suggestions are made regarding host relationships based on the distribution of the lice.
