Morphological revision of the hyperdiverse Brueelia - complex (Insecta: Phthiraptera: Ischnocera: Philopteridae) with new taxa, checklists and generic key Author Bush, Sarah E. text Zootaxa 2017 2017-08-31 4313 1 1 443 journal article 32249 10.11646/zootaxa.4313.1.1 d8cc2cd8-8410-49aa-a75d-7a41d9f52b26 1175-5326 883161 A5Fdfba5-F992-44A8-84C2-1756C943C19B Emersoniella paraboliceps ( Piaget, 1880 ) , new combination Nirmus paraboliceps Piaget, 1880 : 135 . Brueelia pataboliceps ( Piaget), 1880 ; Hopkins & Clay 1952 : 60 . Type host. Probosciger aeterrimus (Gmelin, 1788) —palm cockatoo. Remarks. The single male (the holotype ) in the Piaget collection at NHML belongs to Emersoniella . This genus is normally found on kingfishers ( Alcedinidae ), and the occurrence on a parrot is most likely the result of an incorrect host association due to a misidentification of the host, a contamination, or a straggling event. Using the key of Gustafsson & Bush (2014) , it keys out to E . crassicarina , but differs from this species in the male genitalia, head shape and abdominal chaetotaxy. Therefore, we believe it is likely another species from an unknown host.
