Porocephaliasis is a condition associated with species in the closely related genera Porocephalus and Armillifer. (The term "pentastomiasis" encompasses all diseases of Pentastomida, which includes Porocephaliasis and Linguatulosis.)
Porocephaliasis is associated with contact with snakes. (This is in contrast with Linguatulosis, which is associated with contact with dogs or wolves.)
It has been reported from Africa, Malaysia and the Middle East. Its occurrence has been rare in Europe and North America where it has been found in immigrants and travelers.
