Infestation on humans occurs mainly when the abandoned nests are close to homes, or by manipulation of infested birds by humans. In Brazil, this species occurs in the south and southeast of the country. In the present study we are reporting bites on humans, new localities records, host associations, and molecular information of O. bursa.134-139engBrazilDermatitisHuman parasitism“Tropical fowl mite”Dermatitis in humans caused by Ornithonyssus bursa (Berlese 1888) (Mesostigmata: Macronyssidae) and new records from BrazilDermatite em humanos causada por Ornithonyssus bursa (Berlese 1888) (Mesostigmata: Macronyssidae) e novos registros para o BrasilArtigo10.1590/s1984-296120180097S1984-29612019000100134Acesso aberto2-s2.0-85063948045S1984-29612019000100134.pdf
