The species was first described by W. Eichler in 1952.[1] This species is dark brown with an elongated head, and extremely large – H. hopkinsi is one of the largest feather lice, with males reaching up to {{convert|9|mm|in}} long.[2] They live mostly on the wing feathers, but are quite able to move if disturbed or if their host bird should die.[3] There are usually fewer than half a dozen adult specimens found on a single host bird; low compared with other species of feather lice, which may number in the hundreds.[3] Harrisoniella hopkinsi has been found on the feathers of the wandering albatross (Diomedea exulans) and the southern royal albatross (Diomedea epomophora).[3] References1. ^{{Cite web|url=http://phthiraptera.info/category/chewing-lice/philopteridae/harrisoniella/harrisoniella-hopkinsi|title=Harrisoniella hopkinsi Eichler, W.|last=|first=|date=|website=Phthiraptera.info|publisher=|access-date=12 August 2016}} 2. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.rodmorris.co.nz/keyword/Harrisoniella/|title=Harrisoniella|last=Morris|first=Rod|date=2010|website=Rod Morris Nature Photography|publisher=|access-date=12 August 2016}} 3. ^1 2 {{Cite journal|last=Palma|first=Ricardo L.|last2=Pilgrim|first2=Ron L.
