Haematopinus ludwigi Weisser, 1974 View in CoL

Haematopinus ludwigi Weisser, 1974: 127 View in CoL , figs 1–4, 6–7, 8A–F, 9II.

Haematopinus ludwigi Weisser, 1974 View in CoL ; Durden & Musser 1994: 16.

Type host: “Wild pig from Luzon, Philippines ”, likely Sus philippensis Nehring, 1886 View in CoL — Philippine warty pig ( Durden & Musser 1994) .

Malaysian host: Sus barbatus Müller, 1838 .

Malaysian locality: Tinjar ( Sarawak) Malaysian Borneo ( Weisser 1974).

Geographical distribution: Philippines, Malaysian Borneo ( Durden & Musser 1994; Price & Graham 1997).

Remarks: Weisser (1974) described and illustrated male and female adults of Haematopinus ludwigi , and the second nymphal instar without illustrations. Weisser (1974) incorrectly identified the “Wild pig from Luzon” as Sus verrucosus Boie, 1832 , which only lives in the Indonesian islands of Java and Bawean. In Malaysia, the native Bornean Sus barbatus is classified as vulnerable according to the IUCN Red List ( Luskin et al. 2017). Haematopinus ludwigi is considered unique as it infests two isolated species of insular wild boars, not belonging to the Sus scrofa -group usually found in the Palearctic and continental Oriental Regions ( Weisser 1974).
