Abstract: The types of Haemaphysalis cinnabarina Koch and its junior synonym H. sanguinolenta Koch, both from State of Pará, Brazil, have been studied. Although H. cinnabarina has been considered a synonym of H. punctata Canestrini and Fanzago (a Palearctic species), they were compared to another closely related species H. chordeilis (Packard) (a Nearctic species). Based on the morphology and geographical distance among of H. cinnabarina, H. chordeilis and H. punctata, we are reasonably sure that all are valid taxa. The… Show more

“…Although this is a limitation for this molecular key, H. chordeilis is an avian specialist and is only rarely reported in the United States (29). The sequence of H. chordeilis was excluded in both gene analyses from clades including the other two native North American species (H. juxtakochi and H. leporispalustris) which may be explained based on previous morphologic work (Figures 1, 2) (47,48). Although there is taxonomic debate regarding the validity of all Haemaphysalis subgenera H. chordeilis and H. punctata are both in the subgenus Aboimisalis, whereas H. leporispalustris and H. juxtakochi are both in the subgenus Gonixodes (47)(48)(49).…”

“…For example, Nuttall and Warburton (1915) considered the three names to be synonymous, and authors such as Hewitt (1915) and Parker et al (1932) used the name H. cinnabarina for ticks collected from North American game birds, while a specimen collected from cattle in Canada was called H. punctata in the Nuttall catalog ( Keirans, 1985 ). However, both Hoogstraal (1973) and Barros-Battesti et al (2008) reexamined type specimens of H. cinnabarina alongside specimens of H. punctata and H. chordeilis and concluded that the three are distinct species, separated by geography ( H. punctata in Europe and southwestern Asia, H. chordeilis in North America, and H. cinnabarina known only from the Brazilian type).…”
