In 2010, a 74-year-old Korean woman was attacked by the tick, which is the first human case of "Amblyomma" bite from Korea. More human bites were recorded from Japan as well. Apart from humans, it is a common ectoparasite of snakes. SFTS virus was detected from the tick larva. In 1993, Rickettsia sp. strain AT-1T was isolated from the ticks from Japan.
