Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The paper presents the results of the study of the distribution and seasonal dynamics of ixodid ticks in certain locations and farms of the Almaty, Kyzylorda and Turkestan regions. The results of the study show that the following genera are prevailing in animals and natural biotopes: Hyalomma (H. detritum, H. axiaticum, H. plumbeum, H. scupense and H. anatolicum), Ixodes (Ixodes ricinus), Rhipicephalus (Rhipicephalus rossicus) and Dermacentor (Dermacentor marginatus and Dermacentor pictus).
