Abstract: | Abstract: Eight species of animal lice (Insecta: Phthiraptera) are reported from nine species of rodents belonging to the families Octodontidae, Ctenomyidae and Abrocomidae. They are Gyropus distinctus (Amblycera, Gyropidae) and Ferrisella chilensis (Anoplura, Hoplopleuridae) off Octodon degus; Gyropus distinctus off Octodon lunatus; Gyropus elongatus collected from Aconaemys fuscus; Ferrisella disgrega collected from Octodontomys gliroides; Phtheiropoios pearsoni (Amblycera, Gyropidae) collected from Abrocoma bennetti; Phtheiropoios pollicaris collected from Ctenomys magellanicus; Phtheiropoios nematophallus collected from Ctenomys opimus and Gyropus parvus collected from Ctenomys maulinus. The lice Ferrisella disgrega, Phtheiropoios pearsoni and Phtheiropoios nematophallus are reported from Chile for the first time. We report Octodontomys degus as a new host for Ferrisella chilensis, Abrocoma benetti for Phtheiropoios pearsoni, Ctenomys maulinus for Gyropus parvus, and Abrocoma bennetti for Phtheiropoios pearsoni.
