title: [Ticks on lemmings in the eastern Taimyr].
abstract: 13 taxons of mites associated with lemmings and their nests are reported from East Taimyr. Mass. species are as follows: Parsitus (Eugamasus) sp., L. lemmi, Hg. ambulans, H. isabellinus. Irregular spread of mites in the lemmings'nests favours the creation of conditions sutiable for the circulation of agents of transmissible infections. A more regular distribution of these mites on the animals points to the mixing of the mites population that effects the dissemination of agents. The finding of females with effs (Hg. ambulans, H. isabellinus) on the animals and their simultaneous absence in the nests of the latter show that in the northern parts of the distribution areas of these species their life patterns have an epizootic character.
