Automated identification of spotted-fever tick vectors using convolutional neural networks. [PDF]
Med Vet EntomolWe evaluate the performance of convolutional neural networks (CNN) AlexNet, ResNet‐50 and MobileNetV2 for the automated identification of tick species capable of transmitting spotted fever. CNNs achieved accuracy rates of ~90% in identifying ticks and showed sensitivities of 59%–100% according to species, sex, position or image resolution.

Tick salivary gland extract induces alpha‐gal syndrome in alpha‐gal deficient mice
Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 9, Issue 3, Page 984-990, September 2021., 2021 Alpha‐gal syndrome (AGS) is characterized by delayed hypersensitivity to non‐primate mammalian meat in people having specific IgE (sIgE) to the oligosaccharide galactose‐alpha‐1,3‐galactose and has been linked to tick bites from Amblyomma americanum (Aa) in the U.S.

Microhabitat determines uneven distribution of Amblyomma parvum but not of Amblyomma sculptum ticks within forest patches in the Brazilian Pantanal [PDF]
Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2019 Environmental distribution of the two most abundant ticks in forest areas in the Brazilian Pantanal was evaluated by CO2 traps methodology in the wet season (peak of adult ticks) of 2012 and 2013. Adults of Amblyomma parvum were concentrated inside agglomerates of Bromelia balansae, in the border of forest patches. Adults of Amblyomma sculptum occurred
