In that year three indispensable publications appeared; New Mallophaga I and II, by Vernon L. Kellogg, and Insects Affecting Domestic Animals, by Herbert Osborn. Kellogg's work is the first large systematic treatment of the Mallophaga to appear in America. Part III of New Mallophaga appeared in 1899, along with the first ex tensive treatment of the anatomy of the Mallophaga by R. E. Snodgrass. In the twentieth century, M. A. Carriker, Jr. (1902) published his first paper on Mallophaga and continued working, mainly on Neotropical species until his death in 1965. At the present time, the most active workers in this country are Edwards, Emerson, Price, Tuff, and Ward.
