Information was included in a data base in which a code number was assigned as follows: CZA (Agricultural Zoology Collection)- Ixo (Ixodidae) plus a four digit number. Species were determined by using taxonomical keys. A total of 115 observed samples, 15 species belonged to genus Amblyomma and 3 species to Rhipicephalus from several localities and/or host. More detailed revisions are required to determine total number of hard tick species in the collection.
