Linognathoides urocitelli Durden, Robinson, Cook, McLean, Nyamsuren and Greiman 2019
No full textLinognathoides urocitelli Durden, Robinson, Cook, McLean, Nyamsuren and Greiman, 2019 Ex Urocitellus undulatus (Pallas) (long-tailed ground squirrel) (Sciuridae). Collection locations: Arhangai Province, Zurh Mountain; Huvsgul Province, Heegtsar River Valley; Bayan Olgii Province, Huljaa River Valley (Durden et al., 2019). Notes: This louse is only known from Mongolia, but the host has a wider range in central Asia, encompassing parts of the Russian Federation (Siberia, Transbaikalia), Kazakhstan, Mongolia, China (Heilungjiang and Xinjiang) (Thorington and Hoffmann, 2005), so the louse is likely also more widespread.Published as part of Durden, Lance A., Robinson, Chase, Cook, Joseph A., Bell, Kayce C., Nyamsuren, Batsaikhan & Greiman, Stephen E., 2022, Sucking Lice (Phthiraptera: Anoplura) Parasitizing Mongolian Rodents With The Description Of A New Species Of Hoplopleura From Mountain Voles (Alticola Spp.), pp. 353-365 in Journal of Parasitology 108 (4) on page 360, DOI: 10.1645/22-2, http://zenodo.org/record/775634
