Type host: Mus musculus Linnaeus, 1758 View in CoL —House mouse.

Malaysian host: “Rats”.

Malaysian localities: Negeri Sembilan & Selangor, Peninsular Malaysia ( Mohd-Said et al. 2014) .

Geographical distribution: Cosmopolitan except Antarctica ( Durden & Musser 1994; Price & Graham 1997).

Remarks: The adult male and female of Polyplax serrata were illustrated by Kim et al. (1986), and Wegner (1974) made a detailed analysis of the morphological variation of P. serrata from several hosts. Mohd-Said et al. (2014) collected Polyplax serrata from unidentified rats in Selangor and Negeri Sembilan, but the authors noted that Rattus tiomanicus was the most dominant species in the collecting areas. Considering that P. serrata is mainly infests mice of the genus Apodemus and the house mouse ( Durden & Musser 1994), the Malaysian records are likely to be stragglers.
