Type locality. USA, Illinois, Urbana.
Type host. A “wild rat”.
Principal hosts. Undefinable. A. glasgowi does not exhibit the host specificity and infests a wide range of hosts, including diverse taxa of rodents, bats, small carnivores and insectivores (Strandtmann, 1949; Evans & Till, 1966; Zemskaya, 1973; Goncharova et al., 1991).
Distribution. Cosmopolitan (Evans & Till, 1966). In Asiatic Russia, it is widely distributed (Nikulina, 2004).
Remarks. In the Russian literature, including the most recent publications (Nikulina, 2004; Kryukov, 2005; Mal’kova, 2010), the species has been known under the taxonomic name Androlaelaps (or Haemolaelaps) glasgowi. This usage is conventionally followed here for the sake of convenience, though in the vast majority of recent acarological publications another taxonomic name, A. fahrenholzi (Berlese, 1911), is used.
