Resumen:
The samplings were carried out in Paramillo (Las Heras Department, Mendoza Province) during April of 2017. A total of two adult specimens of the genus Liolaemus were collected, one of Liolaemus ruibali Donoso-Barros and, one of Liolaemus yalguaraz Abdala, Quinteros and Semhan. Three larvae of Amblyommaparvitarsum Neumann, 1901 were collected in L. ruibali and four in L. yalguaraz. These findings of A. parvitarsum feeding on these two species of lizards represent the first records of these parasite-host associations for Argentina.
