    Abstract:
    The exact identification of the preimaginal stages of the ticks collected from small mammals in Western and Northern Caucasus as a result of ten-year route investigations allowed us to obtain new data on the geographic ranges, altitude and biotopic preferences, and host-parasite relations of 11 species. A wide range of the joint occurrence (in the same locality, on the same host species, on the same host individual) is recorded for the first time for 10 species. The cohabitation of the each of 10 species with other 2-9 species has been found. The number of the cases of joint occurrence of different ixodid species on the same host individual is proportionate to the collection period in one locality. The cohabitation did not observed only for the species Ixodes ghilarovi, a high mountain ixodid species, which is for the first time recorded in 7 localities of Northern and Western Caucasus.
