原始摘要（英文原文）· Original abstract
In Brazil, the species Amblyomma dissimile occurs mainly in the North and Midwestern regions and does not naturally occur in the Southern region. Here, we report the second introduction of this tick in Rio Grande do Sul, resulting from the translocation of its host, Caiman yacare (pantanal alligator), from the state of Mato Grosso to Gramado (RS), which highlights the risks associated with transporting wild animals between regions with different climates.
