Epidemiologic patterns of spread of TBE and Lyme Borreliosis in the Kemerovo region within 23 years (1993 - 2015) have been studied. It has been established that sickness rate of TBE has reduced while sickness rate of Lyme Borreliosis has increased. Risk groups and risk areas of distribution of tick-borne infections have been detected. Borrelia DNA has been detected in 35,46 ± 6,26% of ticks, TBE virus antigen has been detected in 2,2 ± 0,28% of ticks. Sickness rate of tick-borne infections and rate of detection of infected ticks differentiate in different areas of the region which therefore should involve differential approach to organization preventive measures.

В статье представлены обобщенные результаты собственных исследований и анализ литературных источников по распространению и некоторым особенностям биологии различных видов иксодовых клещей на территории Кузнецко-Салаирской горной области. Выделены группы наиболее многочисленных видов клещей, представляющих эпидемиологическую угрозу. Установлено изменение доминирования Ixodes pavlovskyi и I. persulcatus на разных территориях. Приведены сведения об основных прокормителях клещей сем. Ixodidae в регионе.
