Abstract
Haemaphysalis aksarensis Özkan, 1977, a forgotten name, is considered provisionally valid in Bursali et al. (2012), who state that this tick was described in 1978. However, two of us (DAA and AEP) feel that H. aksarensis is a junior synonym of Haemaphysalis pospelovashtromae and we have accepted that view here.
