We estimated phylogenetic trees of a clade of wing lice that parasitize New World ground-doves.

Cophylogenetic analysis indicated overall congruence between the louse and parasite phylogenies.

Congruence is most likely driven by the association between Metriopelia doves and their wing lice.

The louse phylogeny is significantly structured according to host biogeography.

Phylogeographic structure among the wing lice provides insights into the evolutionary history of their hosts.
