Работа выполнена в 2017–2018 гг. в отделе паразитологии Института зоологии и паразитологии имени Е. Н. Павловского, в бывшем птицеводческом хозяйстве «Шарифзода» Файзабадского района и птицеводческой ферме «Холбобоева Махбуба» Балджуванского района. Клещи A. persicus были собраны из птицеводческих помещений и гнезд диких птиц 10 марта 2017 г. Опыты проводили на 10 головах молодняка домашних кур в возрасте около 5 мес. Для получения яиц, кормления личинок и нимф А. persicus пользовались методикой М. Г. Ждановой (1948).</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты и обсуждение</title><p>Результаты и обсуждение. На развитие одной генерации клеща A. persicus, без учета времени подготовки и кладки яиц самками, в наших опытах ушло 59–157 сут. Однако, необходимо принимать во внимание время, уходящее на подготовку и откладку яиц. С учетом этих сроков (22–54 сут) в наших условиях развитие клеща продолжается в течение 81–209 сут (или от 3 до 7 мес.). Средний срок развития A. persicus по нашим данным составляет 145 сут, т. е. в течение теплого времени года может развиться одна генерация клеща. Если же метаморфоз будет проходить в минимальные сроки (81 сут), то возможно развитие двух генераций.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The purpose of the research is to investigate biological characteristics of Argas persicus in natural environment of Central Tajikistan.</p><sec><title>Materials and methods</title><p>Materials and methods. The study was conducted in 2017–2018 in the Parasitology Department of the E. N. Pavlovsky Institute of Zoology and Parasitology, on the former Sharifzoda poultry farm in the Faizabad District and the Kholboboev Makhbub poultry farm in the Baljuvon District. A. persicus ticks were collected from poultry buildings and wild bird nests on March 10, 2017. Experiments were conducted on 10 young domestic chickens aged approximately 5 months. The M. G. Zhdanova method (1948) was used to obtain eggs and to feed A. persicus larvae and nymphae.</p></sec><sec><title>Results and discussion</title><p>Results and discussion. Our experiments took 59 to 157 days to develop one generation of A. persicus ticks, excluding the time for females to prepare and lay eggs. However, the time required for preparation and egg laying must be considered. Subject to this period (22–54 days), tick development continues for 81 to 209 days (or 3 to 7 months) in our conditions. Our data indicate that the average A. persicus development period is 145 days, i.e. one generation of ticks can develop during the warm season. However, if metamorphosis occurs in the shortest time (81 days), two generations may develop.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>биология</kwd><kwd>клещи</kwd><kwd>Аrgas persicus</kwd><kwd>генерация</kwd><kwd>Центральный Таджикистан</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>biology</kwd><kwd>ticks</kwd><kwd>Argas persicus</kwd><kwd>generation</kwd><kwd>Central Tajikistan</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Агапович Ж.
