Thorax is short and legs are small, ending with a single claw (arrow). B) Trichodectes canis male louse with short thorax, flattened head with quadrangular shape, broader than long; each leg with only 1 claw on tarsus (arrow). C) Heterodoxus spiniger female louse with subtriangular head, rounded anteriorly. The thorax is considerably longer than wide. Each leg has 2 claws on the tarsus (arrow). Scale bar indicates 1 mm.
