Outline map of California showing currently known localities of infestation of deer by the African blue louse. A fawn died in 1969 in the Parkfield area. Examination of the ani- mal revealed that it had succumbed to a massive infestation by African blue lice. Eighteen dead deer were found in Murrieta Canyon in 1969 and L. africanus was the cause of death. Near AVinters, a doe which had died of other causes in 1970 was host to a light infestation by the same ectoparasite. All occurrences of L. africanus were on black-tailed deer with the ex- ception of those in Kern and Ventura counties which had California mule deer as the hosts. 4—81824.
