Abstract

The catalogue contains data on type specimens of 79 species and subspecies of argasid and ixodid ticks. The data on 32 holotypes, 35 lectotypes, and 2 neotypes are given; paratypes and paralectotypes of 47 taxa are present in the collection. Within each family, type specimens are listed in alphabetical order.
