Ixodes rubicundus
Neumann, 1904
.
Afrotropical: 1)
South Africa
(
Horak
et al.
2018
).
Bibi
et al.
(2020)
stated that
Ixodes rubicundus
was found in
Pakistan
, while
Ekanem
et al.
(2011)
listed this tick as found in
Nigeria
, under the name
Ixodes ribicundus
, a
lapsus.
These records are treated here as doubtful, and both
Pakistan
and
Nigeria
are not included within the range of this tick.
