Gyropidae
Gyropidae (order Phthiraptera, suborder Amblycera) Family of chewing lice, which occur in S. America, where they are parasitic on
caviomorph rodents. Unlike most other mammal-infesting lice, which hold the host's hair between the
tarsal claw and the apex of the
tibia, Gyropidae clasp the hair between the
tarsus and the side of the
tibia or between the side of the tibia and the side of the
femur. The surfaces of the leg contacting the hair are ridged to provide greater purchase, a feature that distinguishes Gyropidae from other lice. There are eight genera, with 61 species.
