6. Bothriocroton tachyglossi (Roberts, 1953) .

Australasian: 1) Australia (Kolonin 2009).

Andrews et al. (2006) reinstated this species under the original name Aponomma tachyglossi, emphasizing that it had been extensively confused with Bothriocroton hydrosauri (under the former genus Aponomma). Beati et al. (2008) are not totally convinced that Bothriocroton tachyglossi differs from Bothriocroton hydrosauri, but it is treated as valid here.
