MThis work may support in strategies to control the spreading of disease to human population and particularly by adopting integrated approaches for the control of vectors in affected areas of Pakistan. Aims: The objective of the work to identify the prevalent of the Tick species sampled from different livestock animals in Pakistan. The Ticks are obligate haematophagous arthropods are obligate commonly distributes throughout the world.  The Ticks are the vectors in deadly diseases like Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF)). Methods: The study was done in department of Biosciences Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto University of Science and Technology, Karachi, Pakistan. 389 tick specimens were sampled.  The longitude and Latitude of each location recorded by using a hand –held Global Positiontioning System (GPSMAP) Garmin 62S. All samples were observed and morphological identified in the Lab with the help of keys under Stereo and Electron Microscope. Results: Out of total 389 sampled ticks 110 ticks were  identified Hyalomma aexcavatum 169, Hylommadromedarii,105, Rhipicephalus decoloratus 2 Rhipicephalus microplus and 3 Rhipicephalus appendiculatus. The percentage of sampled species ticks were H.appendiculatus 0.77%,R. decoloratus 27%,R.microplus 0.5% Hylomma dromadarii 43% and Hylomma excavatum 28% Conclusions: Hylomma dromadarii and Hylomma excavatum found to be the most prevalent  tick species infesting the livestock of the sampled sites.  High prevalence of these two Ticks species are among the competetent vectors for spreading the CCHF combined with reported cases of the disease in cities of Pakistan.
