Haemaphysalis sundrai Sharif 1928
Description
158. Haemaphysalis sundrai Sharif, 1928.
Oriental: 1) India, 2) Nepal (south and central) (Hoogstraal & El Kammah 1970, Dhanda & Bhat 1971, Kolonin 2009, Pun et al. 2018).
Several records of Haemaphysalis sundrai have been published under the name Haemaphysalis himalaya, described by Hoogstraal (1966c), which is a synonym of Haemaphysalis sundrai, as discussed in Guglielmone et al. (2009). Nevertheless, authors such as Ghosh et al. (2007) and Geevarghese & Mishra (2011) have treated both Haemaphysalis sundrai and Haemaphysalis himalaya as valid.
