Haemaphysalis bispinosa is a hard-bodied tick of the genus Haemaphysalis. It is found in India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Pakistan, Nepal, Australia, and Indonesia.^[1] It is an obligate ectoparasite of mammals. It is a potential vector of Kyasanur Forest disease virus. These ticks was found parasitized by a chalcid in these diseased areas.^[2]^[3]

Parasitism[]

Adults parasitize various wild and domestic mammals such as domestic cattle, goats, and sheep and various bird species.^[4] It is a potential vector of Bartonella bovis, which causing Bartonellosis.^[5]
