Haemaphysalis punctata Canestrini and Fanzago 1878

Description

131. Haemaphysalis punctata Canestrini and Fanzago, 1878. A Palearctic species whose adults are usually found on Artiodactyla: Bovidae but with records from several other mammals; larvae and nymphs are commonly recovered from Mammalia (several orders), and Aves (several orders), but they have also been found on Squamata: Anguidae, Lacertidae and Viperidae. All parasitic stages have been collected from Mammalia (several orders), and Aves (several orders), with a rare record of an unknown tick stage from Testudines: Testudinidae. Haemaphysalis punctata is a frequent parasite of humans.

Note: confusion of Haemaphysalis punctata with other species from the same genus was common at the beginning of the 20 th century, as noted by Guglielmone and Nava (2014); therefore, several redescriptions of Haemaphysalis punctata have been excluded from the above lists, as well as redescriptions under the name Haemaphysalis cinnabarina punctata, e.g., Nuttall and Warburton (1915) and others. See also Haemaphysalis cinnabarina for its proposed synonymy with Haemaphysalis punctata.
