Ticks of the Middle East: Taxonomy, Biology, Ecology, Medical and Veterinary Significance consolidates the knowledge of ticks and tick-borne diseases in the Middle East region, with particular emphasis on their taxonomy, synonyms, distribution, ecology, and medical and veterinary significance. This book explores the history of tick research and the geoclimatic conditions of Middle Eastern countries. It also provides distribution maps of each tick species within the Middle East region and a list of ticks found in each country. Written by an international team of experts in the field, Ticks of the Middle East: Taxonomy, Biology, Ecology, Medical and Veterinary Significance provides a concise and authoritative resource on tick species in the region.
