Description

Ricinus sp.

Host: Oenanthe oenanthe (Linnaeus, 1758).

Ref.: Balát (1955a, 1956).

Location: Vysoké Tatry – Skalnaté pleso, 15 Jun. 1955 (Balát 1955a, 1956).

Notes: This is the only published record of Ricinus from Oenanthe oenanthe. However, considering that we could neither find material in the Balát Collection, nor any other specimen from O. oenanthe, we are not able to confirm if Ricinus is a natural and regular parasite of this host.
