Haemaphysalis bispinosa is a hard-bodied tick of the genus Haemaphysalis. It is found in India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Pakistan, Nepal, Australia, and Indonesia.{{cite web | url=http://www.catalogueoflife.org/col/details/species/id/ca87d600d77c3f7b1e103e7e9c944951 | title=Species Details : Haemaphysalis bispinosa Neumann, 1897 | publisher=Catalogue of Life | accessdate=6 February 2017}} It is an obligate ectoparasite of mammals. It is a potential vector of Kyasanur Forest disease virus. These ticks was found parasitized by a chalcid Hunterellus sagarensis in these diseased areas.{{cite journal | url=http://agris.fao.org/agris-search/search.do?recordID=US201302618486 | title=Ixodid ticks on cattle and buffaloes in the Kyasanur forest disease area of Karnataka State [1981] | journal=Indian Journal of Medical Research | accessdate=6 February 2017| year=1981 | last1=Sreenivasan | first1=M.

Parasitism
Adults parasitize various wild and domestic mammals such as domestic cattle, goats, and sheep and various bird species.{{Cite journal| title=Haemaphysalis (Kaiseriana) bispinosa Neumann (Ixodoidea: Ixodidae): Evidence for Consideration as an Introduced Species in the Malay Peninsula and Borneo | journal=The Journal of Parasitology | volume=55 | issue=5 | pages=1075–1077 |jstor = 3277178| last1=Hoogstraal | first1=Harry | last2=Lim | first2=Boo-Liat | last3=Anastos | first3=George | year=1969 | doi=10.2307/3277178 | pmid=5391311 }} It is a potential vector of Bartonella bovis, which causing Bartonellosis.{{Cite journal| title=Prevalence and molecular heterogeneity of Bartonella bovis in cattle and Haemaphysalis bispinosa ticks in Peninsular Malaysia | journal=BMC Veterinary Research | volume=11 | pages=153 | doi=10.1186/s12917-015-0470-1 |pmid = 26179499| pmc=4502507 | year=2015 | last1=Kho | first1=Kai-Ling | last2=Koh | first2=Fui-Xian | last3=Jaafar | first3=Tariq | last4=Hassan Nizam | first4=Quaza Nizamuddin | last5=Tay | first5=Sun-Tee | doi-access=free }}
