Biting lice belong to the group of recto-parasites, which are parasites that live outside
the bird. These flightless insects affect the feathered areas of their host and feed
on the feathers. There are several different varieties of biting lice that all have their
own preference in bird species. All bird lice have nearly the same lifestyle, which is
the reason for them being summarized in this chapter.
