Description

Linognathus vituli (Linnaeus, 1758)

Pediculus vituli Linnaeus, 1758: 611.

Pediculus tenuirostris Burmeister, 1838 *: Species 17.

Haematopinus vituli (Linnaeus, 1758); Denny 1842: 31, pl. 25: fig. 3.

Pediculus oxyrrhynchus Nitzsch, 1864: 21.

Haematopinus tenuirostris (Burmeister, 1838); Giebel 1874: 43, pl. 2: fig. 9.

Haematopinus vituli (Linnaeus, 1758); Osborn 1896: 176, fig. 101.

Trichaulus vituli (Linnaeus, 1758); Enderlein 1904a: 142.

Linognathus vituli (Linnaeus, 1758); Enderlein 1905: 194.

Linognathus vituli (Linnaeus, 1758); Ferris 1916: 166.

Linognathus vituli (Linnaeus, 1758); Ferris 1932a: 356, figs 214–215, 216C.

Linognathus vituli (Linnaeus, 1758); Ferris 1951: 241, figs 107–108.

Linognathus vituli; Mustaffa-Babjee 1969: 37.

Linognathella vituli (Linnaeus, 1758); Ribbeck 1972: 72.

Linognathus vituli (Linnaeus, 1758); Kim et al. 1986: 134, pl. 42.

Linognathus vituli (Linnaeus, 1758); Durden & Musser 1994: 44.

Type host: Bos taurus Linnaeus, 1758 —Domestic cattle.

Malaysian host: Bos taurus.

Malaysian locality: “West Malaysia ” (Mustaffa-Babjee 1969).

Geographical distribution: Cosmopolitan, except Antarctica (Durden & Musser 1994; Price & Graham 1997).

Remarks: The adult male and female of Linognathus vituli were redescribed and illustrated by Ferris (1932a, 1951) and Kim et al. (1986). Studies of L. vituli in Malaysia are lacking, with only one record (Mustaffa-Babjee 1969). Considering that Anaplasma marginale, A. ovis, Rickettsia helvetica and Theileria orientalis were detected in L. vituli (see Hornok et al. 2010; Emery et al. 2021), surveys and studies are needed to establish levels of parasitism and to apply control methods where necessary.

* For clarification of Burmeister’s date of publication, see Durden et al. (2014) and Palma (2017).
