Myrsidea sp. 1

Material studied. 1 male, 4 nymphs, VIETNAM: surroundings of the tourist center and ranger station in central part of Cuc Phuong National Park, Cuc Phuong, Province of Ninh Binh (20°15' N 105°42' E), 4 February 2010, coll. I. Literak.

Remarks. This is the first record of a chewing louse from Serilophus lunatus . Unfortunately, it was not possible to identify these lice to the species level because of lack of material, especially the lack of females. They may represent a new, yet undescribed species. One of 3 birds examined was parasitized by Myrsidea sp. 1.
