ARABIA ; YEMBI; Franchini (1930) stated specimens heid been 

 found at the seacoast town of Hodeida. Our experience here indi- 

 cates that if this locality record is correct, the ticks were 

 from cattle imported from the Yemen highlands. Sanborn and 

 Hoogstraal (1953), Hoogstraal (ms.). 



IMPORTED SPECIMENS ; MADAGASCAR: R. e. evertsi arrives at 

 quarantine but is not established on the i"sland (Buck 194-0, 194-8A, 

 Hoogstraal 1953E). EGYPT: Mason (1915,1916) reported specimens 

 on cattle imported from the Sudan. Nowadays at the Cairo abattoir 

 we find a few specimens on Sudan cattle and sometimes many spec- 

 imens on Somali or EJthiopian cattle that occasionally reach here. 

 Specimens from cattle and donkeys were reported by Mason (1916) 

 without mention of source. The species is not established in 

 Egypt. BRAZIL: Specimens "were found on angora goats in the 

 animal hospital in Rio de Janeiro. If they had not been found 

 they woTild certainly have been scattered throioghout our country 

 like R. sanguineus " (de Beaurepaire Aragao 1936).
