Notas de ixodologia: VII - Otocentor nitens Neuman, 1897) versus Anocentor columbianus Schulze, 1937 e comentários sôbre a rápida disseminação desse ixodideo no Brasil (Acari: Ixodidae)

Abstract: Anocentor columbianus Schulze, 1937 is a synonym of Otocentor nitens (Neumann, 1897). Otocentor Cooley, 1938 becomes a synonym of Anocentor Schulze 1937. The correct name of the species is now Anocentor nitens (Neumann, 1897). In Brazil this species was first recorderd by ARAGÃO (in FLOCH and ABONNENC, 1945) in Belém do Pará and by FONSECA (1948) in Goyaz. New records from Minas Gerais and Matto Grosso are presented and a new host, the jaguar, Panthera onca, is added

“…Comprovadamente A. nitens não possui especificidade em relação ao hospedeiro (MORENO, 1984;SERRA-FREIRE & MIZIARA, 1989), tendo sido incriminado parasitando diferentes mamíferos domésticos (FLECHTMANN, 1985) e animais silvestres (ARAGÃO & FONSECA, 1953;FORRESTER et aI., 1985). O mesmo pode ser dito em relação ao local de fixação (SERRA-FREIRE, 1987).…”
