39. Amblyomma falsomarmoreum Tonelli Rondelli, 1935 View in CoL .
Afrotropical: 1) Ethiopia, 2) Kenya, 3) Somalia, 4) Tanzania ( Theiler 1962, Yeoman & Walker 1967, Walker 1974, Pegram 1976, Matthysse & Colbo 1987, Morel 2003, Kolonin 2009).
Burridge (2011) listed Uganda within the range of Amblyomma falsomarmoreum , a record repeated in Guglielmone & Robbins (2018), but its presence there is doubtful according to Matthysse & Colbo (1987), and no subsequent bona fide records have been found.
Amblyomma falsomarmoreum belongs to the Amblyomma marmoreum complex, which Guglielmone et al. (2017) believe probably comprises more species than currently recognized. Some specimens of Amblyomma falsomarmoreum may have been confused with Amblyomma marmoreum , Amblyomma nuttalli or Amblyomma sparsum , and vice versa.
