Amblyomma gervaisi (Lucas, 1847) Amblyomma gervaisi is found predominantly in broadleaf forests, as well as in desert and xeric shrublands. It has been recorded from Thailand and Vietnam (Kolonin 2009). It is a parasite of snakes and lizards, with occasional records from birds and mammals. This species can reach high prevalences on captive snakes (Catherine et al. 2017a), causing pathological changes to the host’s skin (Catherine et al. 2017b). The male and female are described and illustrated in Kaufman (1972, as Aponomma gervaisi). The nymph is described in Neumann (1899). The larva is undescribed.
