Oblast); Asia: Turkey, Iran, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kirghizia, China (Xingjiang,
Gansu, Inner Mongolia, Jilin, Liaoning, and Xingjiang), Peninsula of Korea, and
Japan.
The range is patched, a relict
species. Hygrophilous, it inhabits valleys and floodplains of rivers,
waterlogged localities, and similar habitats. It has a sporadic presence
throughout most of its range, and is not an abundant species. In the Far East
of Russia, H. concinna has continuous range and is quite abundant.
Adults parasitize various large
and middle-sized mammals. Immature ticks feed on small and middle-sized mammals
and birds. Ticks are often carried out of their range by birds and create
temporary populations (in valleys of the Ural River, the Pripyat River, etc.).
Adults are active in spring and early summer, and immature ticks are active
during the warm season. Life cycle is 2 to 3 years.
It is a vector of tick-borne
encephalitis, tularemia, and tick-borne rickettsiosis.
Note: H. filippovae is
an aberrant female of H. concinna collected in the focus of high
abundance of this species.

small morphological features of Haemaphysalis pavlovskyi
Pospelova-Shtrom, 1935 and Haemaphysalis phasiana Saito, Hoogstraal and

caused by inhabitation by these populations on the periphery of the H.
