Dermacentor nuttalli Olenev, 1928
This tick is found in temperate parts of eastern Asia, where it parasitizes livestock, but also bites humans. The natural habitat is arid grasslands suitable for grazing cattle and sheep. D. nuttalli transmits various diseases like spotted fever, tick-borne Rickettsia, Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever and babesiosis, in addition to being an important vector of spirochetes and forest encephalitis (Gui et al., 2021).
