General Information
The Haematopinus oliveri parasite, also known as the pygmy hog-sucking louse, is an ectoparasite that is found on the critically endangered species, the Pygmy hog. Haematopinus oliveri is also a critically endangered species and is endemic in India and can now only be found in the northeast section of India in a state called Assam. Haematopinus oliveri females are wingless and have flat, leathery bodies with strong claws for hanging on to the hairs of the hog. Unfortunately biologists havent been able to locate a male specimen. The parasite feeds on the hog’s blood and their mouths are used for piercing and sucking. Sexual reproduction occurs on the body of the hog and the female lays her eggs on the body of the hog. The population of the Haematopinus oliveri parasite is on a decline due to the issue of the over hunting of the Pygmy hog.

Review:
Hello! I have some comments:

- You need to have at least 3 references that you use to add to your existing article. These references must be cited in the text and included in a reference section at the end. - Remove "The' from the start of your second and third sentences, add 'and' between species and is in the second sentence. - Remove "Biologists" from the start of sentence 4. - In 5, feed should be feeds - Make sure that you link to the appropriate wikipedia pages throughout - Is there any addition information about the morphology of this louse (size, life cycle, etc.) - Is there information about the discovery of this parasite?
