Published Taxon Remarks:
Ondatra zibethicus has been introduced to China. Frequent studies in its native North America have failed to yield any characteristic anopluran ectoparasites associated with this mammal. Therefore, we suggest that the true host of H. ondatraria is something other than O. zibethicus. [ex. Durden, L. A., Musser, G. G. 1994. Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History 218: 1-90]
