51. Amblyomma goeldii Neumann, 1899 .

Neotropical: 1) Brazil, 2) French Guiana, 3) Suriname (Floch & Fauran 1958, Voltzit 2007, Martins et al. 2015, Guglielmone et al. 2021).

Early records of Amblyomma goeldii are confusing because Neumann (1899) described a female of Amblyomma rotundatum instead of the female of Amblyomma goeldii, which was first described by Floch & Abonnenc (1941) using the name Amblyomma ininii .

Records of Amblyomma goeldii from Colombia and Guyana in Robinson (1926) are not considered bona fide, while the Jamaican specimens recorded by Thompson (1950) were in fact Amblyomma rotundatum (Kohls 1969c) . All three of these countries are therefore excluded from the range of Amblyomma goeldii .
