0 Dalgleish, Robert Campbell Palma, Ricardo Luis Price, Roger DeForrest Smith, Vincent Stuart 2006 Systematic Entomology 31 4 648-651 46326 Five papers describing fossils considered to be Phthiraptera (lice) by their authors are reviewed. We place the specimens described in three papers in the Acari (mites) and regard them as probably not fossils. A fourth paper describes what appears to be a fossil insect. However, we do not consider it to be a louse. The fifth paper describes a more recent fossil that differs little from extant lice. Journal http://www.phthiraptera.org/Publications/46326.pdf
