| Abstract: | The lice which infest man belong to the order Anoplura Leach 1817, containing two sub-orders, (i) Siphunculata Meinert 1891 and (ii) Mallophaga Nitzsch 1818. The family Pediculidae Leach is included in the Siphunculata1. Owing to the confusion which still persists in the literature regarding the nomenclature and systematic position of the two sub-orders of Anoplura, it appears expedient to review the evidence upon which the statement contained in the preceding paragraph is based. |
