Wilson, N. (1967) Ixodes dendrolagi (Metastigmata: Ixodidae ), a new species of tick from tree kangaroos (Marsupialia: Macropodidae ) in New Guinea. Journal of Parasitology, 53, 847–851.
Type depositories: AMNH?: holotype (female) and paratypes (male and females); BM: paratypes (a male and females)
Type locality: Mount Rawlinson , Huon Peninsula, Morobe District, Papua New Guinea
Type host: Dendrolagus matschiei
Comments: Guglielmone et al. (2014) stated that no paratypes of Ixodes dendrolagi were found in the ANIC, as subsequently confirmed by B. Halliday (personal communication to R. G. Robbins). KLC visited the AMNH in 2024 and only one paratype (labeled as allotype male) was found there .
