Distribution of collected ontogenetic stages in all eight sampled regions. Size of the circle corresponds to the average abundance of ticks collected per 100 m2. All plots sampled for tick abundance were included to derive average values, also those plots where we did not find any ticks. The gray area on the map indicates the known distribution of I. ricinus in January 2016
