Type host: Felis silvestris View in CoL priscicollaris Schulze, 1932 , Ixodes

Schulze, P. (1932) Über die Körpergliederung der Zecken, die Zusammensetzung des

Gnathosoma und die Beziehungen der Ixodoidea zu den fossilen Anthracomarti. Sitzungsberichte und Abhandlungen der Naturforschenden Gesellschaft zu Rostock, 3, 104–126.

Type depositories: ZMB?: syntypes (females) ( Schulze 1932a) ; USNTC?: a syntype (female) ( Apanaskevich & Lemon 2018)

Type locality: Weyland Mountains , New Guinea, Indonesia

Type host: Phascogale sp.

Comments: Schulze (1932a) listed specimens that had been deposited in the ZMB, but Ixodes priscicollaris is not listed in the catalog of ZMB types by Moritz & Fischer (1981). According to Apanaskevich & Lemon (2018), one specimen of the probable syntype series is in the USNTC.
