Abstract

Severe dermatitis caused by trombiculid mite infestation was observed in an Amami rabbit (Pentalagus furnessi). The mite was identified as Leptotrombidium miyajimai. This is the first report of trombiculid mite-associated cutaneous lesions in Amami rabbits and also the first direct evidence of L. miyajimai parasitism of this host species.

摘要

在一只奄美兔（Pentalagus furnessi）身上观察到由恙螨侵袭引起的严重皮炎。该螨被鉴定为宫﨑纤恙螨。这是关于恙螨在奄美兔身上引起皮肤病变的首次报告，也是宫﨑纤恙螨寄生于该宿主物种的首个直接证据。
