abstract = {Two new fossil hard ticks (Arachnida: Ixodida: Ixodidae)
from Dominican amber (Miocene, probably Burdigalian, ca. 16
Ma) are described. An almost fully engorged female and a
partly engorged larva were documented by combining light
microscopy with high-resolution µCT-scans at the Deutsches
Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY) and 3D modelling of the data.
Images of the fossils created from these 3D models
facilitated comparisons with living ticks and the new
material can be assigned to the Recent genus Amblyomma C.L.
Koch, 1844 as Amblyomma arawakan Chitimia-Dobler $\&$
Martins sp. nov. The new amber species appears to be most
closely related to the extant New World tick Amblyomma
auricularium Conil, 1878. Possible hosts for the fossils are
discussed within the wider context of their historical
biogeography.},
