本文报道了一种猕猴虱共生细菌-钝足虱Pedicinus obtusus的特征。该共生体构成了一个gammaproteobacterial谱系不同的共生体，位于中肠上皮细胞和卵巢，并表现出AT偏置基因和加速分子进化。拟将其命名为“Pupidatus Puchtella pedicinophila”。
A symbiotic bacterium of the macaque louse, Pedicinus obtusus, was characterized. The symbiont constituted a gammaproteobacterial lineage distinct from the symbionts of anthropoid primate lice, localized in the midgut epithelium and the ovaries and exhibiting AT-biased genes and accelerated molecular evolution. The designation "Candidatus Puchtella pedicinophila" was proposed for it.
