29. Haemaphysalis chordeilis (Packard, 1869).

A Nearctic species, all of whose parasitic stages are usually found on Galliformes: Phasianidae, and Passeriformes: Icteridae. Adults alone have been collected from Anseriformes: Anatidae, Caprimulgiformes: Caprimulgidae, Artiodactyla: Bovidae, Perissodactyla: Equidae, and Rodentia: Sciuridae; immature stages have been recovered from Accipitriformes: Accipitridae, and Passeriformes (several families). Haemaphysalis chordeilis is a rare parasite of humans.

Note: the description of the male of Haemaphysalis chordeilis in Bishopp (1911) was ignored by Cooley (1946), but there are no reasons to declare it invalid. Redescriptions of the female of Haemaphysalis chordeilis in Neumann (1905, 1911a), Nuttall and Warburton (1915) and others have appeared under the name Haemaphysalis cinnabarina or Haemaphysalis punctata cinnabarina, sometimes spelled cinnaberina, as explained in Cooley (1946), Gregson (1956) and Lindquist et al. (2016), and those references are not included in the above lists.
