17. Demacentor kamshadalus Neumann, 1908c .

Nearctic: 1) Canada, 2) USA; Palearctic: 1) Russia (Apanaskevich 2013a).

Dermacentor kamshadalus was reinstated by Apanaskevich (2013), but Lindquist et al. (2016) and Schachat et al. (2018) treat this name as a synonym of Dermacentor albipictus, although Apanaskevich & Barker (2021) continue to strongly support the validity of Dermacentor kamshadalus .

Tsapko (2020) suggested that the specimen of Dermacentor kamshadalus found in Russia is not part of an established population of this species.
