New Geographic Records of Soft Ticks (Ixodida: Argasidae) Parasitic on Bats (Mammalia: Chiroptera) from the Philippines

寄生於蝙蝠(哺乳綱:翼手目)的軟蜱(真蜱目:軟蜱科)之菲律賓新地理紀錄

摘要


The Argasidae (soft ticks) is a family of medically important blood-feeding arachnids that parasitize terrestrial vertebrates. In this paper, we present additional geographic records of bat-associated soft ticks belonging to the genera Argas Latreille and Ornithodoros Koch collected in the Philippines. These records include the first report of Argas pusillus Kohls from Balabac Island and the initial findings of Ornithodoros batuensis Hirst from Batan, Bohol, and Panay Islands. These discoveries enhance our understanding of the distribution of these tick species in the Philippines, which is relevant for assessing their potential impact on public health.
