KURCHATOV & POPOVA (1939). USSR. Ecolocy. Also noted that 

 hatchinc larvae quickly disperse, loss of ability (of 

 which stage not stated) to feed after lengthy starvation, 

 preference for dogs rather than cattle (in comparison with 

 R. bursa ) or mice or rabbits (In comparison with R. rossicus 

 and R. tiiranicus ).

PERVQ'IAISKY (1950B). USSR. Male R. sanj^uineus can fertilize^ 



female R. bursa , which lay a T?rge number of mostly fertile 

 eggs afterwards. Mating between male R. bursa and female 

 R. sanguineiis does not result in fertile eggs. The progeny 

 of male sanguineus _ female bursa tmion were only females 

 identical to ft. bursa . These hybrid females, when fertilized 

 by male R. sanguineus , gave rise to 27 gynandromorphs and 

 323 females Uee also Pervomaisky 195^). This paper also 

 reports Hyalomma gynandromorphs .

morphological characters; some reared material resembles 

 R. turanicus while a proportion of the progeny of R. 

 Turanicus resemble R. sanruineus . These two species 

 mate readily and produce fertile offspring.
