24. Haemaphysalis campanulata Warburton, 1908 .

Oriental: 1) China (south), 2) India; Palearctic: 1) China (north), 2) Japan (except the Ryukyu Islands), 3) Mongolia, 4) North Korea, 5) South Korea (Yamaguti et al. 1971, Keirans & Brewster 1981, Chen et al. 2010, Geevarghese & Mishra 2011, Zhao et al. 2021).

Kiefer et al. (2010) and Černý, J. et al. (2019) did not list Haemaphysalis campanulata as a Mongolian tick, but this species was described by Warburton (1908) from specimens collected in Mongolia on “Chinese dogs.” Mongolia is tentatively included within the range of Haemaphysalis campanulata, because it is unclear whether the “Chinese dogs” carried “Chinese ticks” or were infested in Mongolia.

Hoogstraal & Kim (1985) included an unidentified territory in the former Soviet Union within the distribution of Haemaphysalis campanulata, while Phan Trong (1977) listed this tick as present in Vietnam, a statement that requires confirmation. Tsai et al. (2012) claimed that Chen et al. (2010) included Taiwan within the range of Haemaphysalis campanulata, but Chen et al. (2010) did not list this tick as found in Taiwan. Additionally, Tsai et al. (2012) allegedly found Haemaphysalis campanulata on a bird in Taiwan, but their Table 2 shows this collection as having been made from a bat. We do not include Taiwan within the range of this tick. Kuo et al. (2017) also excluded Taiwan from the range of Haemaphysalis campanulata .
