Louse Classification<br />
Chewing lice used to be called Order<br />
Mallophaga (included Amblycera,<br />
Ischnocera <strong>and</strong> some<strong>time</strong>s<br />
Rhynchophthirina - elephant lice)<br />
Sucking lice used to be called Order<br />
Anoplura
The Lice<br />
PSO = <strong>Psocoptera</strong><br />
AMB = Amblycera<br />
ISC = Ischnocera<br />
ANO = Anoplura<br />
