Geographical Origin for Ixodoidea in
the Nuttall Tick Collection
At the time of Professor Nuttall's death
in 1937 there were 70 nations in the
world community. By January 1, 1984,
that number had increased to 168.
the following list of countries, terri-
tories, islands, and so forth, a few
concepts should be borne in mind. If a
tick collection is missing, I have
listed the locality as it originally
appeared in Nuttall's handwritten
catalogue. If a tick collection is
present, I have, if necessary, updated
the locality to what is the currently
recognized name. Thus, the reader will
find both Gold Coast and Ghana, Persia
and Iran, Ceylon and Sri Lanka, and so
forth, in this listing. In most cases,
I have used the short form of the name
of a country, e.g., Algeria, not
Democratic and Popular Republic of
Algeria. However, in a few instances,
it was necessary for clarity to use the
official long form of the name, e.g.,
People's Republic of China, not China,
to prevent confusion with the political
area listed as Taiwan. I have also
retained the names of certain familiar
islands although they may not be
independent. For example, it is more
convenient to locate a tick collection
from the Galapagos Islands by looking it
up under that name rather than looking
under Ecuador.
