Hyalomma species are identified according to the school of Delpy. Most of the material (41.644 specimens) has been collected by the entomological staff of the Institute of Parasitology and Malariology of Iran and only two species (O. erraticus, H. inermis) have not been observed by the Institute. Four species: Boophilus calcaratus (Bir., 1895), Haemaphysalis numidiana Neum., 1905, H. cinnabarina punctata (Can. and Fanz. 1878) and H. cholodkovskyi Olenev, 19288, previously reported from Iran, are considered synonyms of B. annulatus (Say, 1821), H. erinacei Pavesi, 1884, H. punctata Can. and Fanz., 1878 and H. sulcata Can. and Fanz., 1878 respectively. Three species: Dermacentor marginatus, Ixodes crenulatus and Ixodes ? sp. are new for Iran. ER -
