Guglielmone, Alberto A., Nava, Santiago & Robbins, Richard G., 2023, Geographic distribution of the hard ticks (Acari: Ixodida: Ixodidae) of the world by countries and territories, Zootaxa 5251 (1), pp. 1-274 : 51

64. Amblyomma komodoense ( Oudemans, 1928b) .

Australasian: 1) Indonesia (east of Wallace’s Line) ( Kaufman 1972, Guglielmone et al. 2014).

Camicas et al. (1998) listed Amblyomma komodoense (under the name Aponomma komodoense ) as an Oriental and Australasian species, but records from the Oriental portion of Indonesia are from ticks introduced from the Australasian Region to zoological gardens in Jakarta (western Indonesia) ( Kaufman 1972), and there is no evidence that this tick is established there (Guglielmone et al. 2014).
