Haemaphysalis bispinosa
Haemaphysalis bispinosa is a hard-bodied tick of the genus Haemaphysalis. It is found in India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Pakistan, Nepal, Australia, and Indonesia.[1] It is an obligate ectoparasite of mammals. It is a potential vector of Kyasanur Forest disease virus. These ticks was found parasitized by a chalcid Hunterellus sagarensis in these diseased areas.[2][3]

Parasitism
Adults parasitize various wild and domestic mammals such as domestic cattle, goats, and sheep and various bird species.[4] It is a potential vector of Bartonella bovis, which causing Bartonellosis.[5]
gollark: Is that *safe*?
gollark: Not really. YouTube use base-64-with-underscores-and-dashes video IDs.
gollark: For how well you see it, yes, but IIRC for laser-related eye damage it's just too much energy focused on a small spot, and that damages eye bits.
gollark: ~~For eye damage IIRC color does not really have an effect.~~update: I'm wrong, apparently.
gollark: Yes, people are stupid, don't be stupid.
