| Popis: | Linognathus ovillus (Neumann, 1907) This species is known to mainly infest sheep, and sometimes goats (Durden & Musser 1994). These hosts are distributed worldwide, hence, it was assumed that the distribution of Linognathus ovillus was also cosmopolitan (Durden & Musser 1994). However, L. ovillus has not been reported in Malaysia yet. Given the lack of knowledge about this louse species compared to the chewing lice Bovicola caprae and B. ovis (see Mustaffa-Babjee 1969; Vivi-Susantie et al. 2020), more studies are needed to determine whether L. ovillus is present in Malaysia, and if any pathogens are transmitted by this louse to sheep and goats.
