120. Ixodes laguri Olenev, 1929b .

A Palearctic species, all of whose parasitic stages are usually found on Rodentia : Sciuridae ; all parasitic stages of Ixodes laguri have also been found on Lagomorpha : Ochotonidae , Rodentia (several families), and Soricomorpha (Soricidae) ; adult ticks alone have been collected from Erinaceomorpha : Erinaceidae ; adult ticks and nymphs have been recovered from Carnivora : Mustelidae , and Rodentia : Dipodidae and Gliridae ; and larvae alone have been recorded from Carnivora : Canidae . Ixodes laguri is a sporadic parasite of humans.

Note: Kirschenblatt´s (1936) redescription of a male of Ixodes laguri differs sharply from other descriptions and is therefore not included in the above lists. The redescription of Ixodes laguri in Emchuk (1960) is also excluded because it is not recognized in Filippova (1977), who analyzed the morphology of several populations of Ixodes laguri and redescribed four subspecies of this tick, probably implying that Ixodes laguri comprises more than one taxon. Should this prove to be the case, any compilation of the original descriptions and redescriptions of taxa within this complex will significantly change. Estrada-Peña et al. (2017) found no reliable characters for separating nymphs and larvae of Ixodes laguri from the same stages of morphologically similar species occurring in Europe and North Africa.
