Ecology and other information.
Ixodes frontalis is an exophilic tick species parasitizing primarily dendrophilic birds ( Filippova 1977). It is relatively widely distributed throughout Europe, Western Asia, as well as North Africa ( Filippova 1977; Estrada-Peña et al. 2018). Ixodes frontalis is rare in most of its range. However, the place of mass reproduction of this species was discovered in Dagestan near the Sulak River in a big colony of rooks ( Gusev and Guseva 1960). Under the nests in the rookery, a high, uncountable number of larvae of these ticks was observed. Often there were up to 5,000 individuals per m 2 ( Tsapko 2023).
Single collections of I. frontalis from mammals are known as exceptions. In Europe, adults were found on representatives of the mustelid family ( Guglielmone et al. 2014). In the Shaki District of Azerbaijan (2 km north of the village of Şirinbulaq, 31 Oct 1956), two nymphs were taken from two Libyan jird Meriones libycus (collections of R. B. Kosminsky and R. S. Karandina) ( Tsapko and Kotti 2017). In addition, certain cases of attachments to humans are known ( Gilot et al. 1997).
