Ixodes percavatus Neumann 1906
Description
177. Ixodes percavatus Neumann, 1906.
A species found on islands in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans, all of whose known parasitic stages have been collected from Procellariiformes: Diomedeidae; larvae alone have been recovered from Passeriformes: Turdidae; and unknown stages have been found on Procellariiformes: Pelecanoididae, Pelecaniformes: Hydrobatidae, and Sphenisciformes: Spheniscidae. There are no records of Ixodes percavatus causing human parasitism.

Note: Arthur (1960c) notes the difficulties involved in morphologically separating specimens of what he calls the Ixodes percavatus and Ixodes auritulus groups. See also Ixodes kerguelenensis for its confusion with Ixodes percavatus. Camicas et al. (1998) list Ixodes percavatus as found in the Australasian Region, but Halliday (2012) states that Australasian records are misidentifications resulting from confusion with Ixodes eudyptidis and Ixodes kohlsi.
