We report the parasitism
of a male of Amblyomma mixtum and a
molt nymph-adult of Rhipicephalus
microplus in Darién, Panamá. These data increase the number of tick species
that parasitize free-living jaguars in Panama and add information on the
environmental conditions that favor the parasitism of A. mixtum and R. microplus.
