A contribution to the methods of estimating absolute tick numbers.
The method of estimating tick numbers in nature by means of experimental sites and by subsequent determination and comparison of classes of occurrence frequency, originally developed for estimation of the numbers of adult Ixodes persulcatus in the Far East and Udmurtia, was successfully applied to imagoes and nymphs of Ixodes ricinus occurring in typical Central European biotopes.
