126. Amblyomma triguttatum Koch, 1844a View in CoL View at ENA .

Australasian: 1) Australia, 2) Papua New Guinea ( Roberts 1970, Burridge 2011, Owen 2011).

Roberts (1962a) divided Amblyomma triguttatum into four subspecies, which may indicate that more than one species exists under the name Amblyomma triguttatum .

The presence of Amblyomma triguttatum in Papua New Guinea is based on Owen (2011), a record that is considered provisionally valid here, although Hoogstraal (1982) does not recognize its presence that country.
