Alectorobius kelleyi is an argasid tick parasite of bats. [2]

The species is found widely throughout North America, including the United States, Costa Rica, Mexico and Cuba. [3] It primarily feeds on Eptesicus fuscus, but is also known to rarely bite humans and domestic dogs. [4] [5]

A. kelleyi are often vectors for Rickettsia bacteria species from the spotted fever group, and relapsing fever Borrelia spirochetes. [3] [6] The pathogenicity of these bacteria to humans and bats is unknown, but there is correlative evidence that bites from the species may cause tick-borne disease. [7] [8]

The species is named for Thomas F. Kelley Jr. who discovered the tick while studying at UC Berkeley in 1941. [9]
