Status, sex and repository of types unknown, presumed lost (see Palma 2017: 109).

Type host: Falco tinnunculus Linnaeus, 1758.

Chilean hosts: Falco femoralis Temminck, 1822; Falco peregrinus Tunstall, 1771.

Other hosts: Polihierax insignis Walden, 1872 and twenty-two species of Falco (see Price et al. 2003: 175).

Chilean localities: Not given.

Geographic distribution: All continents, except Antarctica.

Chilean references: González-Acuña et al. (2008a); Moreno & González-Acuña (2015); González-Acuña & Moreno (2018).

Other significant references: Clay (1958a); Palma (1996: 174); Price et al. (2003); Martín-Mateo (2009: 87, fig. 20C); Palma (2010: 408); Palma (2017).

Remarks: Degeeriella rufa is a morphologically variable species (Clay 1958a: 181). Contrary to Price et al. (2003: 175), we follow Clay (1958a) and regard some subspecies of Degeeriella rufa as valid taxa (see below).
