Amblyomma loculosum Neumann, 1907 View in CoL

The southern ocean bird tick, Amblyomma loculosum , was not reported by Kohls (1957). It has a wide distribution in the Indian Ocean and was collected on the red-footed booby ( Sula sula ), sooty tern ( Sterna fuscata ) and humans on Helen’s Reef of Palau. In other parts of its range, this tick has been found on many seabird species which are also known throughout Micronesia ( Hoogstraal et al. 1976).
