    Myrsidea sp. 1 Material examined. Ex Tiaris fuliginosus (Wied, 1830) —Sooty grassquit (Thraupidae): 1♂, San Rafael National Park, Paraguay (26°30'S, 55°47'W), 22 Aug. 2012, I. Literak. Remarks. This is the first record of a chewing louse from Tiaris fuliginosus. Our male differs morphologically from those of other Neotropical Myrsidea by a combination of several important features: (1) presence of median gap in most rows of tergal setae, (2) only 4 metanotal setae, (3) relatively high number of tergal setae, especially VIII with 9 setae, (4) genital sac sclerite without subapical projection on each side, and (5) small dimensions, especially TW, 0.37. This male Myrsidea from Tiaris fuliginosus probably represents an undescribed species, but having only one male is insufficient for an adequate description of a new species.Published as part of Literak, Ivan, 2017, Where are the species limits?

    Leptotrombidium hanseni Traub and Lakshana, 1966 Material examined. Location A: 7 larvae from Pellorneum ruficeps (Passeriformes: Pellorneidae), 1 February 2010; 1 larva from Pellorneum ruficeps, 4 February 2010. Distribution and hosts. L. hanseni is reported to parasitize Tupaia glis (Diard) (Scandentia: Tupaiidae) in China (Stekolnikov 2013). We found L. hanseni in Vietnam for the first time. Pellorneum ruficeps is a new host for this chigger.Published as part of Kaluz, Stanislav, Hung, Nguyen Manh, Capek, Miroslav & Literak, Ivan, 2016, Two new species and new records of chiggers (Acari: Leeuwenhoekiidae, Trombiculidae) from birds in Vietnam, pp. 483-503 in Zootaxa 4061 (5) on page 488, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4061.5.2, http://zenodo.org/record/26771

    Myrsidea rufi Price & Dalgleish, 2006 Myrsidea rufi Price & Dalgleish, 2006: 16, figs 22–23. Type host. Tachyphonus rufus (Boddaert, 1783) —White-lined tanager (Thraupidae). Type locality. Arima, Simla, Trinidad. Material examined. Ex Tachyphonus coronatus (Vieillot, 1822) —Ruby-crowned tanager (Thraupidae): 1♀, 4♂, San Rafael National Park, Paraguay (26°30'S, 55°47'W), 18 & 22 Aug. 2012, I. Literak. Remarks. Myrsidea rufi was described from Trinidad & Tobago and also found on the type host in Brazil (Silva 2013). This is the first record of M. rufi from Paraguay, and of a louse from Tachyphonus coronatus. Our specimens differ from the original description of Myrsidea rufi by setal counts and dimensions, as follows (data from Price & Dalgleish 2006 are in parentheses): Female (n = 1). Metanotum with 12 (8–10) setae on posterior margin. Tergal setae: I, 18 (14–16); II, 17 (9–13); VII, 7 (8–12); VIII, 4 (6–8). Sternal setae: VII, 9 (10–13). Dimensions: TW, 0.42 (0.46–0.49); AWIV, 0.55 (0.59– 0.64). Male (n = 4). Metanotum with 8–10 (6–9) setae on posterior margin. Tergal setae: I, 14–17 (9–14); II, 12–13 (7–12); III, 12–15 (7–12); VI, 8–11 (7–10); VIII, 4 (6–7). Sternal setae: II, 4 setae in each aster, 13–16 marginal setae between asters, 6–8 anterior (together 27–32 vs. 22–26); V, 29–34 (30–35); VI, 25–28 (26–33); VII, 12–15 (13–19); VIII, 11–14 (5–9). Dimensions: MW, 0.34–0.38 (0.38–0.40); AWIV, 0.47–0.48 (0.48–0.53); TL, 1.25– 1.34 (1.28–1.34).Published as part of Literak, Ivan, 2017, Where are the species limits?
