Abstract

Ixodes (Afrixodes) hyracis n. sp. (Acari: Ixodidae) is described based on females ex the rock hyrax, Procavia capensis (Pallas) (Hyracoidea: Procaviidae) from South Africa. Females of this new species are similar to those of some other Afrotropical species of the subgenus Afrixodes Morel, 1966 such as I. arebiensis Arthur, 1956, I. euplecti Arthur, 1958, I. lunatus Neumann, 1907 and I. rotundatus Arthur, 1958, from which they can be distinguished by the shape of the apron, length of the anterior projection of the basis capituli, length of the auriculae, and length and shape of spurs on palpal segment I, coxae and trochanters.

1795年南非硬蜱一新种记述（蜱螨亚纲：硬蜱科）及1958年棘螨Arthur的注释，岩蜱，Procavia capensis（蜱总科：硬蜱科）的寄生虫。

摘要对南非岩狸（原蝇科）Procavia capensis（原蝇科）的雌性进行了记述（蜱螨亚纲：原蝇科）。这一新种的雌性与1966年非洲蝗亚属（Afrixodes Morel）的其他一些非洲热带种（如1956年的I. arebiensis Arthur、1958年的I. euplecti Arthur、1907年的I. lunatus Neumann和1958年的I. rotundatus Arthur）的雌性相似，它们可以通过围裙的形状、头状基前突起的长度、耳膜的长度以及1号掌节、尾骨和转子上的刺的长度和形状来区分。

期刊介绍： Systematic Parasitology publishes papers on the systematics, taxonomy and nomenclature of the following groups: Nematoda (including plant-parasitic), Monogenea, Digenea, Cestoda, Acanthocephala, Aspidogastrea, Cestodaria, Arthropoda (parasitic copepods, hymenopterans, mites, ticks, etc.), Protozoa (parasitic groups), and parasitic genera in other groups, such as Mollusca, Turbelleria, etc. Systematic Parasitology publishes fully illustrated research papers, brief communications, and fully illustrated major revisions. In order to maintain high standards, all contributors describing new taxa are asked to state clearly where the holotype is deposited and to make paratypes available for examination by the referees. It is recognized that, in some cases, this may cause problems for the authors, but it is hoped that by adhering to this rule authors may be protected against rapid synonymy of their taxa, and the types will be preserved for posterity.
