Apparently the flood which had severely damaged the offices of the Department of Hygiene in Caracas had also taken its toll of the box of slides. Many of the labels had become loosened due to the wetting and were scattered about so that it was a long, tedious task to replace them on the proper slides...Out of 17 species which were identified by Stafford, and of which specimens are still in the collection, only two are correctly named, while the hosts of quite a number were in error, including two of the new species...There is no excuse for the publication of such utterly useless rubbish, since it only adds more confusion to that in which the unfortunate Mallophaga have been swamped for so long, and from which they are now emerging, thanks to the tireless work of a number of our modern workers on this fascinating group of insects.” The marginal quality of Stafford’s original taxonomy, together with the history of these
