Note: Haemaphysalis ambigua is a synonym of Haemaphysalis inermis (Hoogstraal 1969, Guglielmone and Nava 2014, Guglielmone et al. 2015), but Haemaphysalis ambigua in Neumann (1906), Hoogstraal and Wilson (1966) and Kitaoka and Mori (1967) is in fact Haemaphysalis kitaokai , as discussed in Hoogstraal (1969). Burger et al. (2013) found that Haemaphysalis inermis and Haemaphysalis parva form a clade divergent from the rest of Haemaphysalis .
