英文摘要The nidicolous tick Ixodes laguri is a nest-dwelling parasite of small mammals that mainly infest rodents of the families Cricetidae, Gliridae, Muridae and Sciuridae. There is no proven vectorial role for I. laguri, although it is suggested that it is a vector of Francisella tularensis. In this study, a first map depicting the entire geographical distribution of I. laguri based on georeferenced locations is presented. For this purpose, a digital data set of 142 georeferenced locations from 16 countries was compiled. Particular attention is paid to the description of the westernmost record of I. laguri in the city of Vienna, Austria. There, I. laguri is specifically associated with its main hosts, the critically endangered European hamster (Cricetus cricetus) and the European ground squirrel (Spermophilus citellus). These two host species have also been mapped in the present paper to estimate the potential distribution of I. laguri in the Vienna metropolitan region. The range of I. laguri extends between 16-108 degrees E and 38-54 degrees N, i.e. from Vienna in the east of Austria to Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia. In contrast to tick species that are expanding their range and are also becoming more abundant as a result of global warming, I. laguri has become increasingly rare throughout its range. However, I. laguri is not threatened by climate change, but by anthropogenic influences on its hosts and their habitats, which are typically open grasslands and steppes. Rural habitats are threatened by the intensification of agriculture and semi-urban habitats are increasingly being destroyed by urban development.
