116. Amblyomma squamosum Kohls, 1953a .

Remote islands: 1) Pacific Ocean Island (central) of Guam (Vander Velde & Vander Velde 2013).

Amblyomma squamosum had been treated as an Oriental species in Guglielmone et al. (2014, 2020) but is now regarded as a species confined to remote Pacific islands. The only known specimens of this tick are those collected in 1945 on Guam and used by Kohls (1953a) to describe this species (Vander Velde & Vander Velde 2013).
