Abstract
During the investigation of the terrariums of snake pets, two species are reported for the first time from Hungary. Females of Ophionyssus natricis (Gervais, 1844) were collected from the body of a Boa sp. (Reptilia:Boidae), and females of Hirstionyssus butantanensis (Fonseca, 1932) were found on body of the new-born mice (Mus musculus Linnaeus) (Rodentia: Muridae) which were used as food of reptiles. Key Words: parasitic mites, terrarium, new records, Hungary.
