Arborophila campbelli (Robinson, 1904) —Malaysian partridge. Remarks. We examined only a single male from this host species. Its genitalia are obscured by gut contents, and therefore we cannot identify this specimen with certainty. Head shape and other characters are similar to those of R. ( F. ) diki , with clearly convex temples and a slightly narrowed frons, but it has proportionately wider temples, shorter preantennal area, and a more rhombic stylus. Considering the small number of males of R. ( F. ) diki examined, we cannot ascertain if those differences fall within a range of intraspecific variation, placing the specimen from A. campbelli as conspecific with R. ( F. ) diki , or if it should be regarded as a separate taxon. More specimens are needed to identify with the species of Reticulipeurus parasitising A. campbelli .
