Abstract

There is some confusion concerning records of Ixodes ventalloi and Ixodes festai (Petney et al. in Appl Parasitol 37:96–98, 1996; Guglielmone et al. in The hard ticks of the world. Springer, Heidelberg, 2014). Because of this diagnostic uncertainty, no references published before Gilot and Perez (1978) will be used here.
