Vesicular Eruption Secondary to Bites by Larval Amblyomma americanum
Cutis, 2022Tick-borne illness is an increasingly concerning cause of human infectious disease. Not only do ticks transmit disease, but their bites also may cause impressive local reactions. This report highlights a case of a widespread vesicular eruption secondary to bites by larval Amblyomma americanum sustained by a 58-year-old woman.

Rickettsia amblyommiiInfectingAmblyomma americanumLarvae
Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases, 2008Polymerase chain reaction analysis of Amblyomma americanum adults, nymphs, and larvae from Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD (APG), revealed a very high prevalence of a spotted fever group (SFG) rickettsia. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and sequence analysis identified "Rickettsia amblyommii." This organism is not yet described or well ...

Amblyomma americanum: a Potential Vector of Human Ehrlichiosis
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1993Polymerase chain reaction primers specific for Ehrlichia chaffeensis were used to amplify DNA from extracts of pooled ticks. Amplification was performed on extracts from 140 pools (1,579 total ticks) consisting of three tick genera collected from five states.

Questing behavior of adult Amblyomma americanum (L.) in a laboratory setting
Systematic and Applied Acarology, 2021Tick-borne diseases are on the rise globally; however, information is lacking about tick questing behavior. In this laboratory study, we explored tick preferences for stem type (plastic grass, wooden, and metal), questing height, and head orientation ...

Vector Borne and Zoonotic Diseases, 2021
Two abundant species of aggressive ticks commonly feed on humans in Georgia: the Gulf Coast tick (Amblyomma maculatum) and the Lone Star tick (A. americanum). A. maculatum is the primary host of Rickettsia parkeri, “Candidatus Rickettsia andeanae,” and a

Veterinary Parasitology, 1997
Transstadial transmission of human granulocytotrophic Ehrlichia (HGE) was attempted in dogs using Amblyomma americanum (L.) and A. maculatum Koch, two species that, as adults, feed readily on human beings. Larvae and nymphs were acquisition-fed on a dog that was parasitemic with HGE.

Evidence for regurgitation by Amblyomma americanum
Veterinary Parasitology, 1988Western blot analysis of Amblyomma americanum-derived midgut extracts using tick-resistant rabbit and guinea pig antisera demonstrated several unique polypeptides ranging from 7 to 355 kDa. These polypeptides were not observed in similar blots of salivary gland extracts or serum from the respective host animals.
