摘要: Abstract Distribution, hosts, brief notes on ecology, and sanitary importance along with taxonomical morphological diagnosis for adults nymphs are provided the 46 species of Ixodidae (25 Amblyomma, 1 Dermacentor, 2 Haemaphysalis, 16 Ixodes, Rhipicephalus) established in Southern Cone America. Condensed phylogenetic trees included to show relationship among from same genera using available information Gen Bank. Two (Amblyomma scutatum A. varium) no longer considered be present this region world. Several Amblyomma medical relevance while Rhipicephalus great veterinary affecting dogs (Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato), all over region, cattle (R. microplus) Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay but not Chile. Dermacentor nitens is an important parasite horses. The Ixodes interest deserve additional studies understand life history Ixodidae. There 12 extant around world, only 5 (Amblyomma, found America, a scenario shared rest American continent (Nearctic Neotropical Region). A total determined Chile, Uruguay, which represents 6% worldwide, about them presented paragraphs below.
