Distribution
This species was collected from a snake kept in Belle Vue Zoological Gardens, Manchester, UK. According to the original data, it was a western green mamba distributed in Western Africa. However, Zumpt (1961) defined the host as an eastern green mamba with an East African areal. Moreover, there is no evidence that the latter host was infested by chiggers in Africa; thus, an African origin of Miyatrombicula ilesi is not confirmed.
Host
Dendroaspis angusticeps ( Zumpt 1961) , D. viridis (original data).
