Size Correlations between Sucking Lice and Their Hosts Including a Test of Harrison's Rule

Also, sucking lice use their tibio-tarsal claws …

Flea and Louse Infestations of Cotton Rats (Sigmodon Hispidus) In The Southeastern United States
… mean intensity of parasitism by sucking lice (Anoplura) and fleas (Siphonaptera) of cotton rats were recorded at all sites. The geographical distribution of S. hispidus and its main louse and flea ectoparasites range from the neotropical region to the southeastern USA. It was hypothesized that …
