从患有双重感染的安哥拉人身上获得的头虱和体虱样本被固定在显微镜载玻片上并进行测量。体虱的平均长度（4.4mm; 3.8mm）大于头虱的平均长度（3.5mm; 2.9mm），但最佳判别指标是中腿胫骨长度（425/296 μ m）和421/291 μ m。在这些双重侵染中未发现中间体标本，尽管可以通过交叉交配实验产生中间体。由于头虱和体虱的种群仍然是不同的，因此可以得出结论，它们代表两个不同的物种，头虱和P。人类林奈
Samples of head lice and body lice obtained from Ethiopians suffering from double infestations were mounted onto microscope slides and measured. The mean length of body lice (♀ 4.4mm; ♂ 3.8mm) was greater than that of head lice (♀ 3.5 mm; ♂ 2.9mm), but the best discriminant was the length of the tibia of the middle leg (♀ 425/296 μ♂421/291 μ). No intermediate specimens were found in these double infestations, although intermediates can can be produced experimentally by cross‐mating. Since populations of head lice and body lice remain distinct it is concluded that they represent two distinct species, Pediculus capitis De Geer andP. humanusLinneaus.
