Ixodes siamensis Kitaoka & Suzuki 1983

Description

214. Ixodes siamensis Kitaoka & Suzuki, 1983.

Oriental: 1) Thailand (Kitaoka & Suzuki 1983).

Ixodes siamensis is not listed as a valid name in Keirans (1992), while Camicas et al. (1998) and Kolonin (2009) regarded Ixodes siamensis as a synonym of Ixodes ovatus, without providing evidence for this claim. On the other hand, Horak et al. (2002) listed this tick as valid, while Guglielmone et al. (2009, 2010 a, 2014, 2020) and Guglielmone & Nava (2014) regard Ixodes siamensis as provisionally valid.
