Abstract:
For the first time, a female specimen of Ixodes frontalis was collected using the flagging method in a public park in the Bavarian city of Ingolstadt, Germany. Previous reports were from migratory birds only. Therefore, this is the first evidence that I. frontalis may be part of the tick fauna of Germany.
