The following table represents the results of an examination of birds which died in the Society's Gardens between 1939–1946. In no case can the numbers of Mallophaga be regarded as a total count, though the proportion of sexes is probably correct. In the majority of cases the genus only is given. The correct naming of each species would entail a review of each genus.
