Four new species in the louse genus Brueelia Kéler, 1936 are described from African hosts of the families Sturnidae and Laniidae. They are: Brueelia rigbyi n. sp. ex Corvinella melanoleuca (Jardine, 1831), B. clara n. sp. ex Lamprotornis australis (A. Smith, 1836), B. tkachi n. sp. ex Spreo albicapillus albicapillus Blyth, 1856, and B. coryliventer n. sp. ex Creatophora cinerea (Meuschen, 1787). These four species are characterized by a unique abdominal chaetotaxy and a sinuous thickening of the distal margin of the male mesosome. These four species are very similar, and we consider them to form one species group. A key to the species of the group is provided.
1936年，凯勒（Kéler）建立了布鲁氏虱属（Brueelia）。本文描述了该属的四个新物种，其宿主为非洲椋鸟科（Sturnidae）和伯劳科（Laniidae）的鸟类。它们分别是：采自黑领鹊（Corvinella melanoleuca，贾丁，1831年）的里格比氏布鲁氏虱（Brueelia rigbyi n. sp.）、采自南非丽椋鸟（Lamprotornis australis，A. 史密斯，1836年）的克拉拉氏布鲁氏虱（B. clara n. sp.）、采自白顶伯劳指名亚种（Spreo albicapillus albicapillus，布莱思，1856年）的特卡奇氏布鲁氏虱（B. tkachi n. sp.）以及采自灰头伯劳（Creatophora cinerea，梅申，1787年）的灰腹布鲁氏虱（B. coryliventer n. sp.）。这四个物种的特征是具有独特的腹部毛序，以及雄性中体远端边缘的弯曲增厚。这四个物种非常相似，我们认为它们构成一个物种组，并提供了该组物种的检索表。
