Note: In this work we have retained the original species determination of specimens deposited at CNAC as A. coprophilus because their stigmal plates are suboval and do not protrude from the body. However, our female specimens possess small tufts of setae along the posteroventral edge of the idiosoma, similar to those seen in A. mexicanus. Further collections near the type localities of both species are needed in order to obtain additional morphological and molecular data that would resolve our specimens’ taxonomic status.

This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Guzmán-Cornejo, Carmen, Herrera-Mares, Angel, Robbins, Richard G., Rebollo-Hernández, Andrea (2019): The soft ticks (Parasitiformes: Ixodida: Argasidae) of Mexico: species, hosts, and geographical distribution.

Abstract

Distribution and host data from published literature and previously unpublished collection records are provided for all 37 species of soft ticks, family Argasidae, that are known to occur in Mexico, including Ornithodoros dugesi, which is generally regarded as a junior synonym of Ornithodoros talaje, and Ornithodoros marinkellei, a new record for Mexico. Parasite-host and host-parasite lists are presented, together with keys to adults and larvae, and a gazetteer of collection localities supplemented by maps showing each species’ distribution in Mexico.
