    Abstract: The morphological features of eggs of three
phthirapteran species (<i>Menacanthus abdominal</i> is Piaget,
1880, <i>Cuclotogaster cinereus</i> Nitzsch, 1866 and <i>Goniodes
astrocephalus</i> Burn, 1838) of common quail lice,
<i>Coturnix coturnix</i>, Linnaeus, 1758 were studied through
SEM. Differences in shape, size, sculpturing of eggs of
each species exhibits difference in microtopography
(mention key differences).
