Haemaphysalis bispinosa is a hard-bodied tick of the genus Haemaphysalis. It is found in India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Pakistan, Nepal, Australia, and Indonesia.[1] It is an obligate ectoparasite of mammals. It is a potential vector of Kyasanur Forest disease virus. These ticks was found parasitized by a chalcid Hunterellus sagarensis in these diseased areas.[2][3]
Parasitism
[edit]Adults parasitize various wild and domestic mammals such as domestic cattle, goats, and sheep and various bird species.[4] It is a potential vector of Bartonella bovis, which causing Bartonellosis.[5]
