Abstract

Amblyomma dissimile is a common ectoparasite of cold blooded animals and is an accidental ectoparasite of some wild mammals. Details of the biology of specimens from the State of Amapá were studied in the laboratory in a humidity chamber at an average environmental temperature of 19.5 degrees C, using Bufo marinus as host for the time in Brazil. We also report the first record of this species in the State of Minas Gerais.
