Neotrombicula whartoni (Ewing)
Dorchester Co., Summerville, November 1929, ex Hylocichla guttata Pallas , coll. W.P. Wharton ( Peters 1933); Pickens Co., Clemson, 3 January 2003, ex Castor canadensis Kuhl , coll. W.K. Reeves; unknown locality, ex Mimus polyglottos Linnaeus , Pipilo erythrophthalmus (Linnaeus) , Toxostoma rufum, Troglodytes aedon Vieillot, ( Peters 1936).
Ewing (1929) described this chigger from a single specimen collected from the ear of a “bird” in Summerville, South Carolina. Collection date and host identity was not reported in the original description, but Peters (1933) stated the probable type host was the eastern hermit thrush. Loomis (1956) reported this chigger from 12 species of mammals and 9 species of birds in North America. Crossley & Proctor (1971) reported N. whartoni from a flying squirrel collected in the piedmont of Georgia.
