            <p>Description.</p>
            <p>Both sexes. Head trapezoidal (Fig. 3), lateral margins of preantennal area concave distally and convex proximally, frons widely concave. Marginal carina slender, much displaced at osculum. Ventral anterior plate small, shield-shaped. Head chaetotaxy and pigmentation pattern as in Figure 3. Preantennal nodi not bulging. Preocular nodi slightly larger than post-ocular nodi. Marginal temporal carina slender, with undulating median margins. Gular plate slender, lanceolate. Thoracic and abdominal segments and pigmentation patterns as in Figures 1, 2; sternites V-VI and subgenital plates medium brown in both sexes.</p>
            <p>Male. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 1; due to thickness of cover glass on single examined male, smaller setae (e.g., ss) not visible, and may be overlooked. Mandibles distorted in single examined male, and not illustrated. Male genitalia of single examined male partially obscured by gut content, and shape of basal apodeme unknown. Proximal mesosome near quadratic (Fig. 4), mesosomal lobes relatively small, gonopore wider than long. Parameres broadly elongated distally (Fig. 4). Measurements (n = 1): TL = 1.43; HL = 0.35; HW = 0.27; PRW = 0.17; PTW = 0.25; AW = 0.37.</p>
            <p>Female. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 2. Subgenital plate pentagonal (Fig. 5), with broad connection to cross-piece. Vulval margin convergent to median point, with 3 short, slender vms and 3-5 short, thorn-like vss on each side; 4 short, slender vos on each side of subgenital plate; distal 1 vos median to vss. Measurements (n = 2): TL = 1.79-1.80; HL = 0.39-0.40; HW = 0.30-0.31; PRW = 0.20; PTW = 0.29-0.30; AW = 0.45-0.48.</p>
            <p>Type material.</p>
            <p> Lectotype ♂,  Hodonín ,  “Kapřiska” , Czechia, 2 Apr. 1949, F.  Balát , 404a (MMBC). Paralectotypes. 1♀, same data as lectotype, 404b (MMBC). </p>
            <p>Non-types. 1♀, same data as lectotype, 404c (MMBC).</p>
            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Balát (1955) mentioned a type male and female on slide no. 404. The same handwritten notes are on slides 404a and 404b. As  Balát (1955) did not explicitly designate a holotype, both examined type specimens mentioned in original description represent syntypes. We hereby designate the male on slide 404a as the lectotype of  B. blagovescenskyi . The other syntype becomes a paralectotype. In addition,  Balát (1955) mentioned two females and 15 nymphs from the same host species as other (non-type) material. Except one female on slide  404 c, these have not been found in the MMBC collection, and must be assumed to be lost. Our redescription of this species is therefore based only on the lectotype and paralectotype, and the single non-type female. </p>
            <p>The lectotype male and paralectotype female (404a-b) are mounted on slides using a second slide used as a cover slide, which blurs the outline of the thoracic and abdominal plates and prevents using higher magnifications. Accurate illustration of the male genitalia is impossible without remounting the specimen, which was not attempted; the genitalia are therefore illustrated approximately. Moreover, smaller setae are very hard to see, and especially smaller abdominal setae of the male may have been overlooked. The female 404b lacks a subgenital plate. For the head and female illustrations, the non-type female specimen (slide 404c) was used. Fresh collections are needed to establish the correct abdominal and leg chaetotaxy of males of this species, as well as the shape of the male genitalic elements.</p>

            <p>Description.</p>
            <p>Both sexes. Head slender, rounded dome-shaped (Fig. 8). Marginal carina slender much displaced at osculum. Ventral anterior plate small, shield-shaped. Head chaetotaxy and pigmentation pattern as in Fig. 8. Preantennal nodi not bulging. Preocular nodi slightly larger than postocular nodi. Marginal temporal carina slender, with undulating median margin. Gular plate broadly triangular, with rounded anterior margins. Thoracic and abdominal segments and pigmentation patterns as in Figures 6, 7; sternal plates get progressively browner in more posterior segments, and subgenital plate of both sexes medium brown.</p>
            <p>Male. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 6; ss visible only on tergopleurites VI-VII in one male, but distal tergopleurites distorted in both examined males and ss on other segments may be overlooked. Basal apodeme slender, with concave lateral margins (Fig. 9). Proximal mesosome gently rounded (Fig. 10). Mesosomal lobes wide, high convergent distally; rugose area limited to distal margin. Gonopore longer than wide. Penile arms not extending distal to mesosome. Parameres moderate in width, much elongated distally (Fig. 11); pst1-2 not visible in examined specimens. Measurements (n = 3): TL = 1.46-1.52; HL = 0.35; HW = 0.25; PRW = 0.17-0.18; PTW = 0.25-0.26; AW = 0.32-0.36.</p>
            <p>Female. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 7. Subgenital plate pentagonal (Fig. 12), with broad connection to cross-piece. Vulval margin convergent to rounded median point, with 2 or 3 short, slender vms and 3 short, thorn-like vss on each side; 2-4 short, slender vos on each side of subgenital plate; distal 1 vos median to vss. Measurements (n = 7, except PTW where n = 6, and AW where n = 5): TL = 1.62-1.84; HL = 0.36-0.38; HW = 0.26-0.28; PRW = 0.18-0.19; PTW = 0.27-0.28; AW = 0.37-0.41.</p>
            <p>Type material.</p>
            <p> Lectotype ♂, Sliven, Bulgaria, 24 May 1957, F.  Balát , 969a (MMBC), Paralectotypes. 5♀, same data as lectotype, 969a-c (MMBC). 1♂, Sliven, Bulgaria, 26 May 1957, F.  Balát , 934 (MMBC). 1♀, Kap Maslennos, Bulgaria, 5 June 1957, F.  Balát , 980 (MMBC). 1♂, 1♀, same data as lectotype, 969d, Brit. Mus. 1958-452 (NHML). </p>
            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Balát (1958) did not designate a holotype for  B. pelikani , but he mentioned that he had examined 3 males, 8 females, and 12 nymphs from 3 hosts; collectively these form the syntype series. The text "Type male and female" is written by hand on the label of slide 969a, and  “paratypes” on slides 969b-c. Another slide (969d) with 1♂, 1♀ deposited at the NHML (Brit. Mus. 1958-452) is marked  “paratypes” . Presently, five slides with a total of two males, six females, and one nymph are de  posited at the MMBC. All specimens other than these and the two specimens at the NHML have been lost. To settle the identity of this species, we hereby designate the male on slide 969a as the lectotype of  B. pelikani . The other syntypes become paralectotypes. </p>
            <p>The abdomen of this lectotype male is unfortunately disrupted distally, which has affected the genitalia. In the paralectotype male 934, the mesosome is partially obscured by gut content, and the shape of the proximal mesosome cannot be seen clearly. We have illustrated the mesosome as seen in the lectotype, but the other genital elements as seen in the paralectotype male (934).</p>

            <p>Description.</p>
            <p>Both sexes. Head flat dome-shaped (Fig. 15), lateral margins of preantennal area slightly convex, frons broadly concave. Marginal carina narrow, deeply displaced and widened at osculum, median margin undulating. Ventral anterior plate small, shield-shaped. Head chaetotaxy and pigmentation patterns as in Figure 15; head sensilla and pts not visible in examined specimens. Preantennal nodi not bulging. Preocular nodi much larger than postocular nodi. Marginal temporal carina moderate in width, with undulating median margin. Gular plate lanceolate, slender. Thoracic and abdominal segments and pigmentation patterns as in Figures 13, 14.</p>
            <p>Male. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 13. Basal apodeme with deeply concave lateral margins (Fig. 16). Proximal mesosome roughly quadratic, with rounded corners, small (Fig. 17). Mesosomal lobes wide, highly convergent distally; rugose area limited to distal margin. Gonopore wider than long. Penile arms not reaching distal margin of mesosome. Parameres slender (Fig. 18), distal part elongated; pst1 -2 not visible in examined specimen. Measurements (n = 3, except HW where n = 2): TL = 1.29-1.55; HL = 0.31-0.34; HW = 0.28; PRW = 0.15-0.18; PTW = 0.24-0.30; AW = 0.32-0.37.</p>
            <p>Female. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 14. Subgenital plate rounded pentagonal (Fig. 19), with broad connection to cross-piece; pigmentation patterns as in Figure 19.

            <p>Type material.</p>
            <p> Lectotype ♂  Gabčíkovo , Slovakia, 25 Mar. 1954, F.  Balát , 676 (MMBC). Paralectotype. 1♀,  Podunajské Biskupice, Slovakia, 20 July 1953, F.  Balát , 1118a (MMBC). </p>
            <p> Non-types. 1♀, same data as lectotype, 676 (MMBC). 1♂, same data as lectotype, Brit. Mus. 1955-662 (NHML). 1♂, 2♀, same data as paralectotypes,1118b, c (MMBC). 5♀, Neslovice, Czechia, 6 Aug. 1958, F.  Balát 1179 (MMBC). 1♂, 1♀, Brno, Czechia, 9. Jan. 1960, F.  Balát , 1327 (MMBC). 1♀, same data as paralectotypes, Brit. Mus. 1955-662 (NHML). </p>
            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Balát (1955) designated a male from  Gabčíkovo and a female from  Podunajské Biskupice as types; these are therefore syntypes. The word  “type” is written in pencil on the slides 676 and 1118a in the MMBC collection. In addition,  Balát mentioned seven females and one male from the same two hosts, and one female from  Tormafölek (Zala m., Hungary, 4 Apr. 1952, leg. Georg Breuer; not at MMBC) as "other material", which do not comprise type material. Presently, there are 4 slides of  B. breueri with a total of two males and four females deposited at MMBC. The other four females, including that from Hungary, are lost. Therefore, to settle the identity of this species, we hereby designate the male on slide 676 as the lectotype of  B. breueri . The other syntypes become paralectotypes. Some specimens deposited in the NHML are called  “paratypes” , are not type specimens, as they are not referred to as such in the original publication. </p>
            <p> Both antennae of the lectotype male are folded underneath the head and seemingly squashed. We have here reversed the dorsal view of the antenna and illustrated it in a more natural position; the antenna in the ventral view is illustrated as in the specimen. However, in both cases the antennae are likely narrower than illustrated here. As both antennae are displaced, the precise location of antennal setae cannot be established, and these have therefore not been illustrated here. Additional material is needed to fully redescribe  B. breueri . </p>

            <p> Male. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 20. Male genitalia asymmetrical in single examined male, and here illustrated as seen in lectotype, in dorso-lateral view. Basal apodeme slender, with concave  lateral margins (Fig. 23). Proximal mesosome distorted in syntype, but seemingly gently rounded (Fig. 24). Mesosomal lobes broad, convergent distally; rugose area not visible, likely limited. Gonopore wider than long.

The specimens are designated as  “types” on the handwritten label. Another nine females and two nymphs were mentioned from the same host specimen, and one female from a different host specimen. Presently, four slides with one male, seven females and one nymph are present at the MMBC; the remaining specimens must be regarded as lost. To settle the identity of  B. glizi , we hereby designate the male on slide 672a as the lectotype, and the female on the same slide as paralectotype. Specimens deposited at the NHML and MNHW are labeled  “paratypes” , but these are not mentioned as paratypes in the original description, and thus do not have type status. </p>
            <p>Additional material is necessary to describe the male genitalia accurately.</p>

            <p>Lednice, Czechia.</p>
            <p>Description.</p>
            <p>Both sexes. Head flat-dome shaped (Fig. 29), lateral margins of preantennal area convex, frons rounded to slightly flattened. Marginal carina moderate in width, shallowly displaced and widened at osculum, median margin undulating. Ventral anterior plate small, shield-shaped. Head chaetotaxy and pigmentation patterns as in Figure 29; head sensilla and pts not visible in examined specimens. Preantennal nodi with slight median bulge. Preocular nodi larger than post-ocular nodi. Marginal temporal carina moderate in width, undulating. Gular plate not entirely clear in examined specimens, but roughly lanceolate. Thoracic and abdominal segments and pigmentation patterns as in Figures 27, 28.</p>
            <p>Male. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 27; ss not visible on tergopleurite VIII in any examined male, but likely present if more specimens are examined. Basal apodeme not clearly visible in any examined males, and here illustrated approximately (Fig. 30); seemingly slender, with lateral margins concave. Proximal mesosome elongated, trapezoidal with concave lateral margins (Fig. 31). Mesosomal lobes broad, highly convergent distally; rugose area limited to distal margin. Gonopore longer than wide. Parameres slender, elongated distally (Fig. 32); pst1-2 not visible in examined males. Measurements (n = 4): TL = 1.32-1.41; HL = 0.31-0.32; HW = 0.24-0.25; PRW = 0.15-0.17; PTW = 0.23-0.25; AW = 0.30-0.36.</p>
            <p>Female. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 28. Subgenital plate roughly rectangular, with narrow connection to cross-piece (Fig. 33). Vulval margin rounded laterally, but roughly flat or slightly rounded medianly, with 4 short, slender vms and 4 or 5 short, thorn-like vss on each side; 3 short, slender vos on each side of subgenital plate; distal 1 vos median to vss. Measurements (n = 11): TL = 1.59-1.76 (1.68); HL = 0.35-0.37 (0.36); HW = 0.27-0.29 (0.28); PRW = 0.18-0.20 (0.19); PTW = 0.27-0.29 (0.28); AW = 0.35-0.41 (0.39).</p>
            <p>Type material.</p>
            <p> Lectotype 1♂, Lednice, Czechia, 26 Mar. 1953, F.  Balát , 1138 (MMBC). Paralectotype. 1♀, same data as lectotype (MMBC). </p>
            <p> Non-type material. 3♂, 8♀, same data as lectotype (MMBC). 1♀,  Točná , Czechia, 23 May 1938, leg. K. Pfleger, Pfl13 (MMBC). 1♀,  Skanör , Sweden, 12 Nov. 1963, F.  Balát , 1315 (MMBC). 1♀,  Břeclav -  Kančí obora, Czechia, 22 May 1953, F.  Balát , 1477 (MMBC). </p>
            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Balát (1955) did not explicitly designate a holotype, but mentioned one male and one female on slide 15/53 (= number on  host’s ring, current slide number 1138) as types; these comprise the syntype series. This is confirmed by  Balát’s handwritten notes on the slide label. In addition, he mentioned three males and eight females from the same host specimen, and one female from a different host as additional material. These are all present in the  Balát collection at the MMBC. We hereby select the male on slide 1138 as the lectotype, and one of the females on the same slide as a paralectotype. These have been marked on the slide with dark spots. </p>
            <p>All examined specimens in Brno are poorly cleared, and many are still attached to feather fragments that further obscure the morphology. As a result, thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy and plates are not always clearly visible, and are here illustrated as accurately as possible. Vulval setae only clearly visible in one female, and range of variation may be greater than given above if more specimens are examined.</p>

            <p>Description.</p>
            <p>Both sexes. Head rounded triangular (Fig. 36), lateral margins of preantennal area more or less straight, in some specimens slightly concave or convex, frons narrowly concave. Marginal carina broad, widening slightly in anterior third, with undulating median margins. Ventral anterior plate shield-shaped, with anterior margin slightly concave. Head chaetotaxy and pigmentation patterns as in Figure 36. Preantennal nodi not bulging. Pre-ocular nodi much larger than postocular nodi. Marginal temporal carina moderate in width, with undulating median margin. Gular plate diffuse in most examined specimens, but seemingly rounded lanceolate. Thoracic and abdominal segments and pigmentation patterns as in Figures 34, 35.</p>
            <p> Male. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 34. Basal apodeme of more or less even width, lateral margins only slightly concave (Fig. 37). Proximal mesosome rounded trapezoidal, with concave lateral margins (Fig. 38). Mesosomal lobes broad, with almost parallel lateral margins; rugose area extensive along distal margin. Gonopore semi-oval, about as wide as long. Penile arms almost reach distal margin of mesosome. Parameres slender proximally, broad at mid-point, and tapering distally, elongated (Fig. 39); pst1-2 as in Figure 39. Measurements ex  Sitta europaea caesia (n = 13): TL = 1.39-1.53 (1.49); HL = 0.38-0.40 (0.39); HW = 0.27-  0.30 (0.29); PRW = 0.16-0.18 (0.17); PTW = 0.25-0.29 (0.27); AW = 0.31-0.39 (0.36). Measurements ex  Parus major major (n = 1): TL = 1.47; HL = 0.37; HW = 0.29; PRW = 0.18; PTW = 0.26; AW = 0.36. </p>
            <p> Female. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 35. Subgenital plate shaped as in Figure 40, with broad connection to cross-piece. Vulval margin convergent to median point or slightly rounded medianly. Vulval chaetotaxy different but overlapping between material from the two host species: 3-5 short, slender vms and 2-4 short, thorn-like vss on each side in specimens from  Sitta europaea caesia , but 3 or 4 short, slender vms and 3 or 4 short, thorn-like vss on each side in specimens from  Parus major major . Material from both host species has 3 or 4 short, slender vos on each side of subgenital plate, with distal 1 vos median to or only slightly anterior to vss. Measurements ex  Sitta europaea caesia (n = 24, except PRW where n = 23): TL = 1.68-1.92 (1.79); HL = 0.42-0.44 (0.43); HW = 0.31-0.34 (0.33); PRW = 0.18-0.21 (0.20); PTW = 0.28-0.33 (0.31); AW = 0.35-0.47 (0.43).

            <p> Holotype ♀ of  Brueelia weberi , Serrahn, [Kreis Neustrelitz, Germany], 7 Oct. 1977, F.  Balát , 1448 (MMBC). Paratypes of  Brueelia weberi : 1♀, same data as holotype, F.  Balát , 1449 (MMBC). 1♂, 3♀,  Chropyně , Czechia, 3 Nov. 1977, F.  Balát , 1381a-d (MMBC). </p>
            <p> Non-type material. Ex  Sitta europaea caesia : 10♂, 19♀,  Košice , Slovakia, 5 Nov. 1953, F.  Balát , 1080 (MMBC). 1♂, Lednice -  Kančí obora, Czechia, 10 Jun. 1953, F.  Balát , 1079 (MMBC). 1♀,  Hodonín , Czechia, 12. Feb. 1954, F.  Balát , 1078 (MMBC). 2♂, 4♀,  Hodonín , Czechia, 24 Nov. 1952, F.  Balát , 651 (MMBC). </p>
            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Balát (1982) explicitly designated the female on slide 1448 as the holotype  Brueelia weberi , and several other specimens as paratypes. This is confirmed in his handwritten notes on the slides. All specimens are present in the MMBC collection, with the exception that there is only one slide marked  “Pfl90” . However, this female and one of the paratype males (slide 1411) represent a separate species (see below) and have, therefore, been excluded from the paratypes. </p>
            <p> We have examined  Balát’s type and non-type material identified as  B. weberi , and compared these with his extensive collection of  B. conocephala from  Sitta europaea caesia . No diagnostic characters that could separate these two species have been found, and most measurements for specimens from  P. major fall within the range of the measurements for specimens from  S. europaea . We therefore consider  B. weberi to be a synonym of  B. conocephala . There is enough variation in the head shape and measurements of  Balát’s specimens of  B. conocephala to accommodate the perceived differences in dimensions reported by  Balát (1982), and the reported differences in the shape of the parameres can be ascribed to individual variation or artificial differences due to mounting. </p>
            <p> Balát collected  B. weberi from several localities, and it would appear that this species is well established on the host,  Parus major . This is in contrast to the only other material known from birds in the  P. major -complex reported by Gustafsson et al. (2018b). They described two species of  Brueelia (  B. picea Gustafsson et al. 2018b and  B. nazae Gustafsson et al. 2018b) which they did not consider to be closely related to  B. conocephala . However, all material Gustafsson et al. (2018b) examined was from non-European members of the  P. major -complex. </p>
            <p> Interestingly, the  “paratype” male on slide 1411 (  Břeclav -  Kančí obora, Czechia, 5 Mar. 1954, F.  Balát , 1411, MMBC) and  “paratype” female on slide Pfl90 (Chuchle, Czechia, 28 Jan. 1938, K. Pfleger, Pfl90, MMBC) represent a different, undescribed, species of  Brueelia . The male specimen is similar to  B. nazae in head shape, but more similar to  B. picea in the shape of the genitalia; the abdominal chaetotaxy is different from both species, with aps on abdominal segment IV (absent in both  B. picea and  B. nazae ). The female specimen is slightly different in head shape from the male specimen, and may represent a different species. We do not describe this species here, as more material is needed to sort out whether both spe  cies of  Brueelia actually occur on  P. major in Europe, or whether  Pfleger’s and  Balát’s material originated in contaminations or stragglers. </p>

            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Balát (1955) did not explicitly designate a holotype for  B. ferianci , but mentioned a male and a female as types. On slide no. 1062, which contains three specimens, the male is circled; on the label, the ♂ is circled within a box that reads "Typ ♂ a ♀". We therefore consider this to be an indication that  Balát considered this to be the holotype. However, as he did not explicitly name it as such in the original publication, it is a syntype, not a holotype. We hereby designate this male the lectotype, and the female syntype thus becomes a paralectotype. Presently, all material listed by  Balát (1955) is at the MMBC, except one female at the NHML and one female we have not been able to locate; this specimen must be regarded as lost. Another three females (slide no. 1177) were collected from the same host species at the same day on the same location as holotype, but according to ring number (42/53) these lice are from another host specimen that is not mentioned in original paper. The specimen deposited at NHML is labeled  “paratype” , but has no type status. </p>
            <p>The width of the frons differs somewhat between different specimens. The head is here illustrated from the holotype, whereas the full-body illustration is from a more narrow-headed specimen, to illustrate the variation in this species. Most specimens examined are more similar to the narrow-headed illustration. We do not presently consider these differences to be of any taxonomic importance, as the specimens we have examined are otherwise similar. However, fresh material from a number of host subspecies and populations may reveal that the material we have examined represents multiple species. Antennae in holotype and paratype males folded under the head, and here illustrated based on non-type material.</p>

            <p> Ex  M. alba : 2♂, 1♀,  Krišovská Liesková -  Krížany , Slovakia, 14 Apr. 1959, F.  Balát , 1215, 1216, 1217 (MMBC). </p>
            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Balát (1958) did not designate any type specimens, and all specimens he mentioned are therefore syntypes. The words "Type male and female" is handwritten on the label of slide 917a, and we therefore designate the male on this slide as the lectotype (this male has been marked with a dark spot on the slide); all other specimens mentioned by  Balát (1958) thus become paralectotypes. All material is present at the MMBC except for the slides at the NHML and PSML listed above, as well as a slide with a single male we have been unable to trace; it should be regarded as lost. </p>
            <p> In addition, there are two slides at MMBC (1485 and 1486) marked 'Type male" and "Type female" on the labels. However, these were collected a year after the publication of  B. kratochvili , and can thus not be part of the type series. The slides from  Motacilla alba are also labeled "Type male" (slide no. 1215), "Paratype male" (slide no. 1216), and "Type female" (slide no. 1217), but  no species name based on these specimens have ever been published. The specimens from  Motacilla alba are here deemed to be conspecific with  M. kratochvili from  M. flava . There are no significant differences in head shape, male genitalia, or abdominal chaetotaxy between material from the two host species, but females from  M. alba have slightly different vulval chaetotaxy from that described above (4 vos, 3 or 4 vms, 5-7 vos on each side). These setal numbers overlap, and we therefore consider  M. alba to be a new host record of  B. kratochvili . </p>
            <p> Notably, specimens from Asian subspecies of  M. alba we have seen differ from the present material in the extent of head pigmentation, the male abdominal chaetotaxy, and the shape of the male genitalia, including both the parameres and the mesosome. These populations may represent a different species of  Brueelia , and are not included under  B. kratochvili here. </p>

            <p>Description.</p>
            <p>Both sexes. Head slender, rounded triangular (Fig. 57), lateral margins of preantennal area convex, frons narrowly concave. Marginal carina slender, deeply displaced at osculum, median margin slightly undulating. Ventral anterior plate not visible. Head chaetotaxy and pigmentation patterns as in Figure 57.

            <p>Male. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 55. Basal apodeme widening distally, with lateral margins slightly concave at mid-point (Fig. 58). Proximal mesosome large, trapezoidal with slightly concave lateral margins (Fig. 59). Mesosomal lobes slender, converging distally; rugose area extensive along distal margin.

            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Balát (1955) did not designate any holotype, but mentioned a male and a female as  “types” ; these two specimens comprise the syntype series. The specimens on slides 1133a and 1133b are marked accordingly in handwriting, and the male is here designated the lectotype with the female becoming the paralectotype. All other specimens mentioned by  Balát as additional specimens have no type status. Slide 1133d is marked "allotype female" and slides 1133e-n are marked  “paratypes” , but this does not seem to be in  Balát’s hand. Presently, 20 slides with a total of four males and 18 females are deposited at the MMBC. We have been unable to trace the remaining one male and three females and consider them to be lost. </p>

            <p>Both sexes. Head elongated, rounded-trapezoidal (Fig. 64), lateral margins of preantennal area convex proximally and concave distally, frons narrowly concave. Marginal carina moderate in width, with undulating median margin, deeply displaced at osculum. Ventral anterior plate small, shield-shaped. Head chaetotaxy and pigmentation patterns as in Figure 64. Preantennal nodi not bulging. Pre- and postocular nodi of roughly equal size. Marginal temporal carina of moderate width, median margin undulating. Gular plate lanceolate. Thoracic and abdominal segments and pigmentation patterns as in Figures 62 and 63.</p>
            <p>Male. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 62. Male genitalia slightly distorted, and proximal mesosome not clearly visible; here illustrated in dorso-lateral view as seen in single examined specimen. Basal apodeme broad, anterior end not visible in specimen (Fig. 65). Proximal mesosome seemingly broad and trapezoidal (Fig. 66). Mesosomal lobes broad, rounded; rugose area extensive along distal margin. Gonopore distorted, but seemingly semi-oval, about as wide as long. Parameres slender, elongated distally (Fig. 67); only pst1 visible in specimen, as in Figure 67. Measurements (n = 1): TL = 1.40; HL = 0.34; HW = 0.25; PRW = 0.16; PTW = 0.23; AW = 0.31.</p>
            <p> Female. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 63; holotype has 5 mms on one side and 7 mms on the other; we have here illustrated only 5, as this is the normal amount in  Brueelia and the number found in the examined non-type females. Female subgenital plate is almost completely translucent and exact limits very hard to ascertain; apparently broadly pentagonal, with connection to cross-piece moderate in width (Fig. 68). Vulval margin rounded, with slight bulge in median section; 3  or 4 short, slender vms and 3 or 4 short, thorn-like vss on each side; 3 short, slender vos on each side of subgenital plate; distal 1 vos median to or only slightly anterior to vss. Measurements (n = 2): TL = 1.42-1.72; HL = 0.34-0.38; HW = 0.25-0.27; PRW = 0.17-0.19; PTW = 0.24-0.26; AW = 0.34-0.39. </p>

            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Balát (1981) explicitly designated a holotype (female on slide 1519), which is also marked accordingly on the label in handwriting. All other specimens were explicitly designated paratypes. Presently, there are four slides with this material at the MMBC, comprising one male and three females; the remaining two males and two nymphs mentioned by  Balát are not in the MMBC, and must be regarded as lost. In addition, slide 1520, which supposedly contained a male of this species, is empty. </p>

            <p> Non-types examined. Ex  Turdus viscivorus viscivorus : 2♂, 2♀, Crno Jez, Durmitor, Montenegro, 8 July 1958, S. Brelih, 333, 1990, 1992-1993 (PMSL); 6♂, 10♀, Crno Jez, Durmitor, Montenegro, 3 July 1958, S.

            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Balát (1981) explicitly designated the male on slide 1523 (  Brelih’s collection number 6342) as the holotype, and this is confirmed by the handwritten note on the slide label. Another female from the same host specimen (slide no. 1524;  Brelih’s collection number 6344), and 20 males, 26 females, and 6 nymphs were designated as paratypes. Presently, six slides with the holotype and five paratypes are at the MMBC. All other specimens are missing from the MMBC, and must be regarded as lost. </p>

            <p>Sokolnice, Czechia.</p>
            <p>Description.</p>
            <p> Both sexes. Head broad, rounded dome-shaped (Fig. 78), lateral margins of preantennal head convex, frons broadly concave. Marginal carina broad, with undulating median margin. Dorsal and ventral anterior plates and exact extent of dorsal preantennal suture not clear in examined specimens, and illustrated tentatively. Head chaetotaxy as in Figure 78. Preantennal nodi bulging. Pre- and postocular nodi of roughly equal size. Marginal temporal carina of moderate width, median margin undulating slightly. Gular plate not visible in examined material, and not illustrat  ed . Thoracic and abdominal segments as in Figures 76 and 77. Pigmentation artificially altered, and true pigmentation patterns unknown. </p>
            <p>Male. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 76. Basal apodeme widening proximally, with slightly concave lateral margins (Fig. 79). Proximal mesosome widening slightly proximally (Fig. 80). Ventral sclerite rectangular, slender. Mesosomal lobes slender, convergent distally, seemingly not fused in distal end. Mesosomal chaetotaxy as in Figure 80. Moderate rugose area anterior to reverse drop-shaped gonopore. Parameral heads roughly widely rectangular (Fig. 81); parameral blades slender, elongated; pst1-2 not visible in specimens. Measurements (n = 2): TL = 1.25-1.26; HL = 0.37-0.38; HW = 0.39-0.41; PRW = 0.24; PTW = 0.32-0.35; AW = 0.51-0.52.</p>
            <p> Female. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 77. Holotype with 5 mms on one side, and 7 mms on the other; we here illustrated only 5, which is the typical number in  Guimaraesiella . Tergopleurite VI without post-spiracular setae in holotype, but this is likely an anomaly as these setae occur in all other  Guimaraesiella ; ss on tergopleurite VIII only present on one side. Subgenital plate not clear in specimen, seemingly wide anteriorly (Fig. 82); distal shape unknown. Vulval margin gently rounded, somewhat flattened medianly, with 2 short, slender vms and 2 or 3 short, thorn-like vss on each side; 4-6 short, slender vos on each side of subgenital plate; distal 1 vos median to vss. Measurements (n = 1): TL = 1.71; HL = 0.44; HW = 0.47; PRW = 0.28; PTW = 0.42; AW = 0.64. </p>
            <p>Type material.</p>
            <p> Holotype ♀, Sokolnice, Czechia, 1 Apr. 1958, F.  Balát , 1242 (MMBC). Paratypes. 2♂, same collection data as holotype, F.  Balát , 1240, 1241 (MMBC). </p>
            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Balát (1981) explicitly designated the female on slide 1242 as the holotype, and the specimens on slides 1240 and 1241 as paratypes. This is confirmed by the handwritten notes on the slide labels. All specimens are present in the MMBC.  Balát (1981) stated that both paratype males were immature. This is incorrect, as both males are adult. However, all three known specimens are poorly cleared, and many details cannot be seen properly, including the meso- and metasterna, metepisterna, proepimera, the gular plate, many leg setae, and the distal section of the subgenital plate of both sexes. More specimens of  G. haftorni are needed to completely redescribe and reillustrate this species. </p>
            <p> The  Guimaraesiella of European thrushes are all morphologically very similar, differing mainly in the male genitalia and the head shape. Moreover, we have seen  some specimens of  Guimaraesiella from non-type host species in European material (D. Gustafsson unpublished data). Unless these records are the result of contamination or misidentification of the host, this may suggest that at least some European species of  Guimaraesiella occur on more than one host species. Relying on host relationships to obtain the species identity of  Guimaraesiella samples from thrushes may thus be unreliable. However, almost all species of  Guimaraesiella , including those from thrushes, are poorly described, and presently unidentifiable. Redescriptions of  Guimaraesiella amsel (Eichler, 1951),  Guimaraesiella marginata (Burmeister, 1838),  Guimaraesiella turdinulae (Ansari, 1956), and  Guimaraesiella viscivori (Denny, 1842) are urgently needed to establish the species limits in this group. </p>

            <p>Description.</p>
            <p>Both sexes. Head broad, rounded pentagonal (Fig. 85), lateral margins of preantennal area convex, frons broadly concave. Marginal carina moderate in width, with undulating median margin. Exact posterior extent of dorsal preantennal suture not clear in examined specimens, but suture does not appear to reach ads. Ventral anterior plate with deeply concave anterior margin. Head chaetotaxy and pigmentation patterns as in Figure 85; pigmentation of preantennal head rather uniform. Preantennal nodi with slight median bulge. Preocular nodi larger than postocular nodi. Marginal temporal carina thin, of more or less equal width. Gular plate short, broad, with median point. Thoracic and abdominal segments and pigmentation patterns as in Figures 83, 84.</p>
            <p>Male. Sternites II-IV partially ruptured and displaced in neotype, and here illustrated approximately. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 83; neotype has no setae on dorsal side of abdominal segment XI, but this is likely an anomaly. Male genitalia partially obscured by gut content. Basal apodeme widens proximally, with slightly concave lateral margins in distal half (Fig. 86). Proximal mesosome widening proximally, with concave lateral margins (Fig. 87). Ventral sclerite obscured by gut content, and illustrated approximately; seemingly narrowly rectangular. Mesosomal lobes slender, converging in distal end, fused distally. Mesosomal chaetotaxy as in Figure. 87. Rugose area absent. Gonopore almost terminal, semi-oval. Parameral heads large (Fig. 88), parameral blades of approximately uniform width in proximal half, tapering in distal half, with pst1-2 as in Figure 81. Measurements (n = 1): TL = 1.32; HL = 0.34; HW = 0.33; PRW = 0.21; PTW = 0.30; AW = 0.43.</p>
            <p>Female. Thoracic and abdominal chaetotaxy as in Figure 84. Examined specimens poorly cleared, and exact shape of distal subgenital plate not clear, and here illustrated as accurately as possible; seemingly rounded-triangular, with broad distal section, including wide lateral submarginal bulges (Fig. 89). Vulval margin flattened medianly, with 3 or 4 short, slender vms and 8 short, thorn-like vss on each side; 3 or 4 short, slender vos on each side of subgenital plate; distal 1 vos median to vss. Measurements (n = 3): TL = 1.61-1.66; HL = 0.36-0.38; HW = 0.35-0.37; PRW = 0.21-0.22; PTW = 0.31-0.34; AW = 0.46-0.51.</p>
            <p>Type material.</p>
            <p> Neotype 1♂, Nejdek u Lednice, Czechia, 6 May 1953, F.  Balát , 1114 (MMBC). Neoparatypes: 3♀, same data as neotype, 1113, 1114 (MMBC). </p>
            <p> Remarks . </p>
            <p> Gustafsson and Bush (2017) included  Nirmus lais Giebel, 1874, in  Guimaraesiella Eichler, 1949, without comment; they did not examine any specimens of this species. The placement of this species in  Guimaraesiella followed  Balát (1955), who placed it in  Allobrueelia Eichler, 1951, a synonym of  Guimaraesiella , and  Złotorzycka (1977), who placed it in  Allonirmus Złotorzycka , 1964, also a synonym of  Guimaraesiella . However, they overlooked that Giebel (1874) stated that this species was close to  Nirmus intermedius Nitzsch [in Giebel], 1866, which Gustafsson and Bush (2017) placed in  Brueelia Kéler , 1936. This apparent contradiction requires some additional discussion. </p>
            <p> Giebel’s description of  N. lais was based on a single female, and does not contain any specific character that can be used to place  N. lais in either  Brueelia or  Guimaraesiella with certainty. Giebel (1874) did not illustrate this species. Giebel (1866) recorded lice from the same host merely as " N  …” [species 25 under the genus  Nirmus ], but lists specimens from  Erithacus rubecula (Linnaeus, 1758) under the same heading; the lice from  E. rubecula were later (Giebel 1874) described as  Nirmus tristis Giebel, 1874, which was also placed in  Guimaraesiella in the revision of Gustafsson and Bush (2017). </p>
            <p> Giebel’s (1874) statement that  N. lais is similar to  N. intermedius is unreliable, as his other statements about similarity between louse species are often confusing. For instance, on the page before the description of  N. lais , Giebel (1874: 142) stated that  Nirmus intermedius is similar to  Nirmus ruficeps Nitzsch [in Giebel], 1866, and  N. limbatus Burmeister, 1838. The former species is a head louse, now placed in the genus  Rostrinirmus Złotorzycka , 1964, whereas the latter is an uncommonly wide-headed and large-bodied member of  Brueelia s. str.  Brueelia intermedia , by contrast, is a slender-headed species of  Brueelia , quite unlike both  N. ruficeps and  N. limbatus . This issue is further confused by  Giebel’s statement that  N. intermedius is similar to  N. merulensis Denny, 1842, differing only in the proportions of the antennae and the prothorax. Gustafsson and Bush (2017) placed  N. merulensis in the genus  Turdinirmus Eichler, 1951, a genus superficially similar to  Guimaraesiella , but very different from species of  Brueelia known from thrushes in size, head shape, and head structure. It is therefore not at all clear what specimens Giebel actually examined, and what he means by  “similar” . </p>
            <p> Apart from the specimens listed here, we have been unable to locate any specimens of  Brueelia -complex lice from  L. megarhynchos in any of the museum collections we have searched (see list in Gustafsson and Bush 2017). In particular,  Giebel’s original specimen appears to have been destroyed in the war (Clay and Hopkins 1955). Moreover,  Balát’s (1955) report appears to be the only subsequent report of any species of louse in the  Brueelia -complex from  L. megarhynchos. Eichler [in Niethammer] (1937; not seen) and  Séguy (1944) reported  N. lais from  Luscinia luscinia (Linnaeus, 1758); we have not seen these specimens. It is not clear from  Séguy’s (1944) short description whether his specimens represent the same species as  Giebel’s N. lais , or whether this identity is assumed based on the close relationship between the host species. </p>
            <p> Złotorzycka (1977: figs 149-152) illustrated the head, ventral anterior plate, male genitalia, and pleurites of  N. lais , but indicated that this species was not known from Poland (ibid.: 10). It is therefore uncertain where the material she based her illustration on originated, nor where this specimen is located today.  Złotorzycka’s illustrations are rarely very informative, especially those of male genitalia. However, the specimens we have examined are largely concordant with the illustrations of  Złotorzycka (1977). </p>
            <p> To stabilize the nomenclature of the lice found on thrushes and flycatchers, we here designate a neotype for  Nirmus lais Giebel, 1874, from  Balát’s specimens. These specimens all belong to  Guimaraesiella (sensu Gustafsson and Bush 2017), and our neotype designation thus conforms to the placement of this species in  Guimaraesiella by Gustafsson and Bush (2017), in  Allobrueelia [=  Guimaraesiella ] by  Balát (1955) and Mey (2017), and in  Allonirmus by  Złotorzycka (1977). More  over , this conforms to  Giebel’s (1866) earlier placement of  Nitzsch’s material from  L. luscinola [=  L. megarhynchos ; but given as  Sylvia luscinia by Giebel (1866)] with his material from  E. rubecula , which represents  Guimaraesiella tristis . </p>

            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Balát (1981) reported four males and three females of this species from three localities in Czechia and Yugoslavia. The male on slide 1383 was explicitly designated as holotype, and the other specimens as paratypes. Unfortunately, these slides cannot be found at the MMBC, and we have been unable to trace them elsewhere. The type material of this species must be regarded as lost. </p>
            <p> This is unfortunate, as  A. tovornikae is considered to be a senior synonym of  Nigronirmus atricapillae Soler-Cruz et al., 1984, from the same host (Gustafsson and Bush 2017). While this synonymy should not be controversial, considering the morphological similarities of the two species, any neotype designation for  A. tovornikae will need to take the synonymy with  N. atricapillae into consideration. For this, fresh material is needed. </p>
