Ixodes neuquenensis Ringuelet, 1947 . Neotropical: 1) Argentina , 2) Chile ( MarĂ­n-Vial et al. 2007 , Guglielmone et al. 2021 ). Sebastian et al. (2016) reported Ixodes cf I. neuquenensis nymphs collected from southern Argentina ; therefore, another species close to Ixodes neuquenensis most probably exists in that country.
