Austromenopon pinguis, sensu lato
Creators
Description
Colpocephalum pingue Kellogg, 1896a: 144, pl. 12, fig. 5.
Procellariphaga pinguis (Kellogg, 1896); Hopkins & Clay 1952: 299.
Austromenopon pingue (Kellogg, 1896); Timmermann 1965: 166.
Austromenopon pinguis (Kellogg, 1896); Price & Clay 1972: 490, figs 10–12.
Lectotype ♀ in EMEC (Price & Clay 1972: 490).
Type host: Phoebastria albatrus (Pallas, 1769).
Galápagos host: Phoebastria irrorata (Salvin, 1883).
Galápagos locality: Isla Española.
Galápagos reference: This paper.
Other significant references: Timmermann (1965: 166); Price & Clay (1972); Palma (1996: 118); Price et al. (2003: 92).
Material examined: 14 males, 12 females and 2 nymphs (5 samples, MONZ).
Remarks: This is the first record of Austromenopon pinguis from the Galápagos Islands, and is also a new hostlouse association. The material examined from Phoebastria irrorata differs in some features from typical A. pinguis. However, we do not consider such differences to justify naming a new taxon; hence we qualify the population from Phoebastria irrorata as “ sensu lato ”. Austromenopon pinguis has been recorded from most species of small albatrosses (listed as species of Diomedea by Price et al. 2003: 92).
