| OCA15. Annotation of the output with contextual information concerning the description of creative process and the content of the research/artistic/other activity, etc. | Herein we report the first occurrence of Ixodes ariadnae in Slovakia. One engorged female was collected from a greater mouse-eared bat (Myotis myotis) in the spring of 2025. Identification of the collected I. ariadnae specimen was based on morphological characters and confirmed by sequencing COI genes and mitochondrial 16S rDNA. Sequences showed > 99–100% similarity to specimens collected in other European countries. This expands the known range of I. ariadnae and calls for the further investigation into its host associations, prevalence, and potential role in tick-borne pathogen transmission among European bats. |

| OCA16. Annotation of the output in English | The detection of Ixodes ariadnae in Slovakia expands the known distribution of this bat-associated tick species, which has been confirmed in Europe (Hungary, Germany, Belgium, and Turkey) and Asia (Turkey and Japan). To date, 25 hard ticks, including I. ariadnae, have been recorded in Slovakia. This paper includes morphological and molecular evidence of one engorged female I. ariadnae collected from a greater mouse-eared bat (Myotis myotis) in Slovakia. The bat was found exhausted during the spring migration period. As Slovak and Hungarian populations of M. myotis move between roosts in both countries, we assumed that the bat was returning from Hungarian wintering grounds where I. ariadnae is present. |

| OCA18. Characteristics of the output's impact on socio-economic practice | The detection of I. ariadnae in Slovakia expands the known distribution of this batassociated tick species, which was previously confirmed in Europe (Hungary, Germany, Belgium, and Turkey) and Asia (Turkey and Japan). The present study provides the first molecular confirmation of I. ariadnae in Slovakia, contributing to a more complete understanding of the distribution and hylogeography of bat ticks in Europe. To examine whether I. ariadnae can be spread to Slovakia through bat migration, or whether it is currently hiddenly present in Slovakia, further detailed studies need to be carried out. |
