In this study, we report five case reports of humans being bitten by the tropical fowl mite and provide new records of its localities. Morphological and molecular characterizations of this species are also provided, enhancing our understanding of this mite.
Ornithonyssus bursa, known as the tropical fowl mite, is a hematophagous mite of domestic and wild birds, which occasionally bites humans. Accidental bites on humans occur mainly when abandoned bird nests are close to homes or when people are handling parasitized birds. In the present study, we describe five case reports of bites on humans and new records of localities for this species. Based on the material examined, we provide morphological and molecular characterizations for this species herein.
