Haemaphysalis inermis Birula, 1895 (Fig. 2)
Material examined: Sakar Mts, NE of Planinovo Vill., 41°58'32.5"N 26°23'11.8"E, 333 m a.s.l., 02.v.2021, edge of oak forest, 1 ♀ (BFUS- ACR000015), on clothing, Y. Petrova leg.; Sakar Mts, the road between Ustrem and Radovets Villages, 41°58.388’N 26°28.983’E, 216 m a.s.l., edge of mixed forest, roadside vegetation, 14.iv.2023, 1 ♂ (BFUS- ACR000016), on clothing, D. Gradinarov & Y. Petrova leg.
Notes: According to Georgieva & Gecheva (2013), Hae. inermis is rare species, distributed in Southern Bulgaria. In previous studies it was reported from Sofia, Petrich, Rila Mts, Kardzhali region and localities along the Black Sea coast (Trifonov 1975, Georgieva & Gecheva 2013). Recently this species has been found in Sarnena Sredna Gora Mts (Arnaudov & Georgiev 2022). Typical habitats of Hae. inermis are deciduous and mixed forests (Guglielmone et al. 2014 a, Estrada-Peñа et al. 2017), which is also confirmed by our findings of this species.
