Two remarkable species of Phtheiropoios (Phthiraptera: Gyropidae) from Tucumán Province, Argentina

This study deals with two species of the genus Phtheiropoios, redescribing P. tucumanus Cicchino, 1990, previously known from five specimens collected on Ctenomys tucumanus Thomas, 1900, and describing P. inaequalis sp. nov. from C. tuconax Thomas, 1925, both from different localities in Tucumán Pro...
