Type locality. Ceylon, Colombo. Type hosts. Mus rattus and Mus norvegicus (both domestic species are classified within Rattus now). Principal hosts. Domestic rats of the genus Rattus (Herrin & Tipton, 1976). Distribution. L . nuttalli is a cosmopolitan species tightly associated with its principal hosts, rats of the genus Rattus . It is found wherever domestic Rattus species occur (Herrin & Tipton, 1976). However, Mašán & Fenďa (2010) believe that L . nuttalli has not been found on the European continent until recently and mention L . dolomydis Mrciak, 1974, which closely resembles L . nuttalli , as a distinct species in the European fauna. In Asiatic Russia, the species has been recorded from the southern parts of the Far East and Eastern Siberia, including Yakutia (Nikulina, 1987, 2004; Goncharova et al ., 1991).
