The species epithet is a noun in apposition derived from the species name of the type host.</p><p>Remarks. This is the first record of a chewing louse from Automolus leucophthalmus. A portion of COI gene was sequenced from specimens of M. leucophthalmi from Paraguay (GenBank MF563529). As expected, the closest species among other published sequences of Neotropical Myrsidea was M. ochrolaemi (ex Automolus ochrolaemus (Tschudi, 1844), family Furnariidae, GenBank JN638820), with a sequence divergence of 11.7%. This divergence is close to the limit of accepted interspecific variation (see Price et al. 2008a; Kolencik et al. 2017) but, together with their morphological differences, we are confident that M. leucophthalmi and M. ochrolaemi represent separate species.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F887ABFFEFFFCAA5F7D3B7FE5E1989	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Literak (MMBC).</p><p>Diagnosis. Myrsidea philydori n. sp. shares the same type of male genital sac sclerite as other Myrsidea from members of the Furnariidae . According to the shape of female tergites, M. philydori is close to M. waterstoni Valim, Price &amp; Johnson, 2011 from Anabacerthia variegaticeps (P.L. Sclater, 1857) from Panamá. Female of M. philydori can be easily distinguished from those of M. waterstoni by the absence of a detached plate on tergite III and a larger number of setae on tergites IV–VI (12–14 vs 7–10 respectively). Males of M. philydori and of M. waterstoni are very similar in setal counts, but they can be separated by smaller dimensions in all measurements, especially TW (0.42–0.44 vs 0.47) and PW (0.26–0.28 vs 0.31). Comparing M. philydori with other Neotropical Myrsidea, the new species has modified tergites similar to those of M. rekasii Dalgleish &amp; Price, 2003 and M. baileyae Dalgleish &amp; Price, 2003, both described from the Pipridae . However, males of these latter species have completely different type of genital sac sclerite. Females of M. philydori differ from those of M. rekasii by smaller numbers of setae on tergites I–III (9–10 vs 12–14 on I; 6–8 vs 11–18 on II; 10–11 vs 13–16 on III) and from those of M. baileyae by smaller number of setae on tergite VIII (4 vs 8–9), as well as by smaller dimensions, especially TW (0.47–0.48 vs 0.54–0.55).</p><p>Description.

These are first records of chewing lice from both Philydor rufum and Anabacerthia lichtensteini . A portion of COI gene was sequenced from one specimen of M. philydori from Anabacerthia lichtensteini from Paraguay (GenBank MF563530). Comparing our sequence with other known sequences of Neotropical Myrsidea, divergences exceeded 19% in all cases, including that with M. waterstoni (ex Anabacerthia variegaticeps, family Furnariidae, GenBank FJ 171278) being 19.3%. Curiously, comparing our sequence of M. philydori with all known Myrsidea sequences, the closest was that of M. textoris Klockenhoff, 1984 (ex Ploceus intermedius Rüppell, 1845 and Ploceus velatus Vieillot, 1819, family Ploceidae, GenBank KF768813 and KF768815) from South Africa, with a p-distance of about 17.5%. Furthermore, sequences of a portion of EF-1alpha gene of M. philydori from Philydor rufum and from Anabacerthia lichtensteini (GenBank MF574203 – MF574204) were identical to each other, and diverged from that of M. waterstoni (GenBank FJ171305) by 3.4%. All these sequence divergences are large enough to confirm M. philydori as a new, separate species.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F887ABFFE1FFC8A5F7D5B7FCB9188C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Literak (MMBC).</p><p>Remarks. This is the first record of a chewing louse from Taraba major . Our female is close to Myrsidea dacostai Price, Johnson &amp; Dalgleish, 2008 from Thamnophilus doliatus (Linnaeus, 1764), although it is considerably larger than specimens from the type host in almost all dimensions. This size discrepancy could be the result of a correlation with the size differences between the two hosts: Taraba major with length 19–20cm and weight 50–70g against Thamnophilus doliatus with length 15–16cm and weight 24–30g (see Zimmer &amp; Isler 2003). Such correlation of host and louse size within a given louse genus is known as Harrison’s Rule (Price et al. 2003). Furthermore, both Taraba major and Thamnophilus doliatus have almost the same geographical distribution (Clements et al. 2017). More data are necessary to test if these differences are due to intraspecific variation or if our female represents another, distinct, species.</p><p>Our specimen differs from the original description of M. dacostai by setal counts and dimensions, as follows [data from Price et al.

Literak (MMBC) . Paratypes: 6♀, 7♂ with the same data as holotype (MMBC) .</p><p>Diagnosis. Myrsidea pyriglenae belongs to the mcleannani species group (sensu Price et al. 2008b), based on the shape of the male genital sac sclerite and the deeply serrated female vulvar margin. According to setal counts and measurements, it is morphologically similar to M. milleri Price, Johnson &amp; Dalgleish, 2008 ex Gymnopithys rufigula (Boddaert, 1783) from Venezuela. However, females of M. pyriglenae n. sp. are distinguished from those of M. milleri by having (1) modified tergites, especially enlarged tergite II (Fig. 27), and (2) larger number of setae on tergite VII (14–16 vs 6–10), tergite VIII (8–9 vs 4), and on anal fringe (83–88 vs 64–74). Males of M. pyriglenae differ from those of M. milleri by having a larger number of setae on tergites VII (11–15 vs 7–9) and VIII (7–8 vs 4). In addition, the host species of these two species of Myrsidea ( Pyriglena leucoptera and Gymnopithys rufigula) have different geographical distributions (Clements et al. 2017) and are not phylogenetically closely related (Isler et al. 2013). Considering genetic data, M. pyriglenae is closest to M. patersoni Price &amp; Johnson, 2009 (see Remarks below), but these two species clearly differ in such significant characters as (1) female tergites having completely different shapes (compare Fig. 27 with fig. 3 in Price &amp; Johnson 2009), and (2) completely different genital sac sclerite in males (compare Figs 14–17 with fig. 4 in Price &amp; Johnson 2009).</p><p>Description.

Literak (MMBC) . Paratypes: 2♀, 3♂ with the same data as holotype (MMBC) .</p><p>Diagnosis. Myrsidea pachyramphi n. sp. is morphologically similar to M. incerta (Kellogg, 1896b) and M. pricei Clay, 1966 from members of the Turdidae, and to M. bessae Price, Johnson &amp; Dalgleish, 2008 and M. alexanderi Kolencik, Sychra, Valan &amp; Literak, 2016 from members of the Troglodytidae . Combining genetic and morphological difference, the closest species is M. incerta . However, females of M. pachyramphi can be distinguished from those of M. incerta by having (1) a larger number of setae on the femoral brush (18–22 vs 13– 17), and (2) larger dimensions, as follows: MW (0.42–0.43 vs 0.37) and AWIV (0.52–0.57 vs 0.50), while males differ by having a greater total number of setae on sternites IV–VII (85–96 vs 53–82). Further, females of M. pachyramphi, differ from those of M. pricei in (1) the shape of the first tergite (more concave in M. pricei); and (2) the number of setae on tergites I–IV (total 28–38 in M. pachyramphi vs. 40–52 in M. pricei). Males can be distinguished by the number of setae on tergites I–V (total 29–33 in M. pachyramphi vs. 39–53 in M. pricei). Females of M. pachyramphi can be easily distinguished from those of M. bessae by the shape of the metanotum and first two tergites. Finally, M. pachyramphi differs from M. alexanderi in the number of setae on tergites I–VII: females with a total of 44–61 setae in M. pachyramphi vs. 74–90 in M. alexanderi; males with a total of 38–43 vs. 63–71.</p><p>Description.

The species epithet is a noun in apposition derived from the generic name of the type host.</p><p>Remarks. This is the first record of chewing lice from Pachyramphus polychopterus . A portion of COI gene was sequenced from two specimens of M. pachyramphi from Paraguay (GenBank MF563534 – MF563535). Comparing our sequence with all known Myrsidea sequences, the closest were: (1) those of M. incerta (ex Catharus ustulatus (Nuttall, 1840), GenBank FJ 171268 – FJ 171269, and Catharus minimus (Lafresnaye, 1848), GenBank FJ 171270, family Turdidae), with p-distances of 11.9–12.9%, (2) those of M. alexanderi (ex Pheugopedius maculipectus Lafresnaye, 1845, GenBank MF563536), and M. bessae (ex Pheugopedius fasciatoventris Lafresnaye, 1845, GenBank EU289214, and Cantorchilus semibadius Salvin, 1870, GenBank EU289213 family Troglodytidae), with p-distances of 12.7–13.7%, and (3) that of M. pricei (ex Catharus guttatus (Pallas, 1811), GenBank FJ 171273), with a p-distance of 13.7%. These divergences are close to the limit of accepted interspecific variation but, together with their morphological differences, we are confident that M. pachyramphi is a distinct species. Further molecular data are needed to clarify the phylogenetic relationships of these species within the species-complex and confirm their valid status as species or subspecies.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F887ABFFFBFFD7A5F7D009FB5219D4	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

A portion of COI gene was sequenced from specimens of Myrsidea sp. 2 ex Leptopogon amaurocephalus from Paraguay (GenBank MF563537). Comparing our sequence with other known sequences of Neotropical Myrsidea, the divergences exceeded 16% in all cases including those of the two morphologically closest species: M. elaeniae Price, Hellenthal &amp; Dalgleish, 2005 (ex Elaenia flavogaster (Thunberg, 1822), GenBank KF048117), with a p-distance of 19.5%, and M. cnemotriccola Valim &amp; Weckstein, 2013 (ex Cnemotriccus fuscatus, GenBank KF048124), with a p-distance of 20.6%, both from species of Tyrannidae . The closest species was M. lightae Valim &amp; Weckstein, 2013 from the Cardinalidae (GenBank EU289211), with a pdistance of 16.9%. These results show that our specimens differ from all Neotropical Myrsidea with known sequences of COI. Despite some morphological differences (especially the smaller number of setae on tergite I in both sexes), we found our specimens to be very close to M. contopi . However, molecular data from M. contopi from the type-host are necessary to confirm that our samples belong to M. contopi . Also, more morphological and genetic data are needed to evaluate the status of Myrsidea from Leptopogon amaurocephalus from different localities, especially because our single males from Paraguay and Perú show some differences in tergal setae (tergites VI–VII of male from Perú with 7–9 setae vs 13–15 in male from Paraguay) and measurements (TW 0.40 for male from Perú vs 0.37 for male from Paraguay). According to these characters, the male from Perú is conspecific with M. contopi, while the specimen from Paraguay could represent a separate species or subspecies. However, the male from Paraguay share the same shape of male genital sac sclerite with M. contopi, while that from Perú differs in this character (see Figs 36 and 37), but such difference maybe the result of a distortion. Contrary to Price et al. (2005), we think that it is not possible to use the tip of the male genital sac sclerite as a single character to separate species of Myrsidea .</p><p>Although both host species ( Contopus cinereus and Leptopogon amaurocephalus) are not closely related (Rheindt et al. 2008), they have almost the same geographical distribution (Clements et al. 2017), implying that host-switching of lice between these host species (see Price et al. 2003) is a possible explanation for the unusual host distribution of these specimens of Myrsidea .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F887ABFFFEFFD4A5F7D7F7FD201B4B	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Furthermore, the female of M. leptopogoni can also be distinguished by the absence of a median gap among setae on tergite I (Fig. 29), and the male by the number of setae on tergites I–III (total 35–36 vs 19–28 in M. rekasii). Among the species of Myrsidea from members of the Tyrannidae, the closest morphological species to M. leptopogoni is M. oleaginei, but females can be easily distinguished by the shape of tergites I–II, being U-shaped in M. leptopogoni (Fig. 29), but V-shaped in M. oleaginei .</p><p>Description.

This species epithet is a noun in apposition derived from the generic name of the type host.</p><p>Remarks. This is the first record of chewing lice from Leptopogon superciliaris . A portion of COI gene was sequenced from specimens of M. leptopogoni from Costa Rica (GenBank MF563538). Comparing our sequence with other known sequences of Neotropical Myrsidea, the divergences exceeded 18% in all cases, including that with the morphologically close species M. oleaginei (ex Mionectes oleagineus, family Tyrannidae, GenBank KF048108), with a p-distance of 25.6%. The closest p-distance was with that of M. cnemotriccola (ex Cnemotriccus fuscatus, family Tyrannidae, GenBank KF048124), with a value of 18.1%. Unfortunately, there are no genetic sequences known from M. rekasii, the species morphologically closest to M. leptopogoni . However, considering the combination of morphological differences between M. oleaginei and M. rekasii, and the large sequence divergence with M. oleaginei, we are confident that M. leptopogoni is a new, separate species.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F887ABFFF2FFD9A5F7D7F7FABC1CB1	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
