Ticks of Australasia: 125 species of ticks in and around Australia.

The present work is an update and a substantial expansion of Barker & Walker (2014). Barker & Walker (2014) dealt with 16 species of particular importance to domestic animals and humans whereas the present work deals with all 125 of the species known from Australasia; that is Australia, New Zealand, the island of New Guinea, Sulawesi, and the islands of the western Pacific. These comprise 102 species of ixodid (hard) ticks and 23 species of argasid (soft) ticks.
