Ectoparasites of rodents in Southern Africa: two new species of Laelaps Koch, 1836 (Acari: Laelapidae) ectoparasitic on Rhabdomys pumilio (Sparrman) (Rodentia: Muridae).

Sonja Matthee1, Edward A Ueckermann.   

Abstract

Laelaps horaki n. sp. and L. radovskyi n. sp. are described from the pelage of the rodent Rhabdomys pumilio (Sparrman) in the Western Cape Province, South Africa. The formal taxonomic description and illustrations are derived from adults (females and males) and deutonymphs. A key to southern African species of Laelaps Koch, 1836 is given.
