Trichodectidae
Trichodectidae is a family of louse in the parvorder Trichodectera. Its species are parasites of mammals. Classification Trichodectidae was previously classified as belonging to Ischnocera, but phylogenetic studies had found that group to be paraphyletic. In 2021, de Moya ''et al.'' proposed that Trichodectidae be split off from Ischnocera and to be put into a newly created grouping called Trichodectera.

Trichodectera
Trichodectera is a parvorder of lice from the infraorder Phthiraptera that are parasites of mammals. It contains the large family Trichodectidae, plus a few minor families.

In 2021, de Moya ''et al.'' proposed that Trichodectidae be split off from Ischnocera and to be put into a newly created grouping called Trichodectera.
