Mitochondrial genome and nuclear ribosomal RNA analysis place Alveonasus lahorensis within the Argasinae and suggest that the genus Alveonasus is paraphyletic [PDF]
Two major families exist in ticks, the Argasidae and Ixodidae. The Argasidae comprise 2 sub-families, Argasinae and Ornithodorinae. The placement into subfamilies illuminate differences in morphological and molecular systematics and is important since it

Interaction of rickettsiae with haemocytes of Alveonasus lahorensis ticks.
The development of different rickettsial species (Rickettsia sibirica, R. conorii, R. acari and coxiella burnetii) in haemocytes of Alveonasus lahorensis ticks was compared by viral observations and time-lapse cine-micrography. The interaction of different rickettsial species with the haemocytes in vitro had specific characteristic features and ...

[Experimental study of relations of the argasid ticks Alveonasus lahorensis with Coxiella burnetii].
The argasid ticks A. lahorensis can be infected with Coxiella burnetii on feeding on an infected rabbit. The adoptive pathogen reproduces in the ticks and accumulates in them up to 10(10) ID50 g(-1). Coxiella persists in the ticks at this level up to 156 days (the time of observation).
