- •
We collected questing ticks from three different provinces in Mongolia.
- •
We detected Babesia microti from Ixodes persulcatus ticks.
- •
Mongolian B. microti sequences were clustered within US-type.
- •
The present study reported the first detection of B. microti from ticks in Mongolia.
- •
The present studies should provide us with better understanding of zoonotic Babesia epidemiology in Mongolia.
