[Hewitt] CANADIAN TICKS 229 



Dog, man and deer (0. columhianum) . 



Nuttall and Warburton (1911), in addition to the above hosts, 

 give records of the following hosts for I. riciniis in North 

 America: Felis concolor, Felis pardalis, Bos taurus, Lepus 

 sylvaticus, grey fox, wild cat, opossum, ground squirrels and 

 mouse. 



Banks (1908) records specimens in the Marx collections from 

 Kansas on sheep and from Texas on cattle and suggests 

 that they were possibly introduced into this continent with 

 their hosts. 



Ixodes texanus Banks 

 Localities. 



Hadwen (1912, 1914) gives: 



Mount Lehman, B.C. (Coll. 16-1-1910), and Bella Coola, 

 B.C., Agassiz, B.C. (6-vii-1912). 

 Hosts 



Hadwen (1912) records the following: 

 Raccoon {Procyon lotor) , 

 Squirrel {Scuirus h. douglasii). 



Haemaphy salis cinnabarina Koch 



(PI. I, Figs. 3 and 4.) 

 (Synonymy. — Dr. S. Hadwen advises me that Prof. Nuttall in a letter 

 to him states that Haemaphy salis punctata C. and F. now becomes 

 H. cinnabarina Koch, 1844, as this latter name has priority over 

 H. clwrdeilis Packard. The types are in the Berlin Museum. 

 Neuman placed this species as a synonym of H. leporis-palustris 

 but it is of course distinct.) 

 Localities 



Specimens have been received from the following localities : 



Winnipeg, Man. (Received from Vet. Insp. General, coll. 



on cattle in abattoir, 18-viii-1913, and 23-IX-1913).

 1914, on cow.) 



(Coll. N. Criddle, 2-X-1914 on Pediœcetes phasianellus
