Chilean hosts: Fulica armillata Vieillot, 1817; Fulica cornuta Bonaparte, 1853. Other hosts: Hydrophasianus chirurgus (Scopoli, 1786); Podica senegalensis (Vieillot, 1817); seven species of Fulica, and five species of Gallinula (see Price et al. 2003: 136). Chilean localities: Antofagasta: Region II. Geographic distribution: All continents, except Antarctica. Chilean references: Price (1974: 75); Cicchino (2011: 103).

Bartlett & Anderson (1987) demonstrated the transmission of the filarioid nematode Pelecitus fulicaeatrae (Diesing, 1861) by this louse.
