Checklist of ectoparasitic arthropods among cave-dwelling bats from Marinduque Island, Philippines [PDF]

open access: yesCheck List, 2017
This paper constitutes the first ectoparasite faunal survey of bats for Marinduque Island, Philippines. From 1–12 June 2010, 150 bats belonging to 11 species were captured in 11 caves on the island.

Environmental and health associations with parasite presence on a coastal sentinel, the little penguin

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2025, Issue 5, May 2025.
Seabird health is linked to their marine and terrestrial environments, but health–environment relationships are rarely described. Parasites are common among seabird colonies, however reductions to seabird health may occur if the delicate parasite–host relationship is imbalanced.

Potential mechanisms implied in tick infection by arboviruses and their transmission to vertebrate hosts

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, Volume 20, Issue 2, Page 315-330, March 2025.
We summarize the recent progress in understanding defense mechanisms in specific tissues or sites that are encountered by arboviruses and discuss their possible roles in virus infection or transmission. Abstract Ticks can transmit many pathogens, including arboviruses, to their vertebrate hosts.

Inespecificidade parasitária em Argas (Persicargas) miniatus Koch, 1844 (Acari: Argasidae) Nonspecificity of parasitism on Argas (Persicargas) miniatus Koch, 1844 (Acari: Argasidae)

open access: yesArquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2007
Foram coletados 665 espécimes de Argas miniatus em dois municípios dos estados da Bahia e Minas Gerais. Destes, 596 (89,6%) tinham se alimentado, sendo que 489 (82%) reagiram para um único tipo de sangue, distribuídos entre aves (46,8%), roedores (30,9%),

Development of a rapid and reliable surveillance method for Ornithodoros turicata americanus in gopher tortoise (Gopherus polyphemus) burrows in the southeastern United States

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 122-133, March 2025.
We developed a rapid, effective technique for surveying for Ornithodoros turicata, a vector of African swine fever virus using gopher tortoise burrows. When working under a time constraint during tick collection, vacuuming substrate from the top meter of the burrow followed by sifting for soft ticks outperformed CO2 traps.

Spatial Distribution of Ticks (Arachniada: Argasidae and Ixodidae) and Their Infection Rate to Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus in Iran

open access: yesJournal of Arthropod-Borne Diseases, 2021
Background: The Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF) is one of the most important arthropod-borne viral dis­eases with a mortality rate of about 30% among humans.

Differential Impact of Simultaneous or Sequential Coinfections With Borrelia afzelii and Tick‐Borne Encephalitis Virus on the Ixodes ricinus Microbiota

open access: yesInternational Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Ticks, particularly Ixodes ricinus, are significant vectors of pathogens such as Borrelia spp. and tick‐borne encephalitis virus (TBEV), which cause Lyme borreliosis (LB) and tick‐borne encephalitis (TBE), respectively. Understanding how these pathogens interact within the tick microbiome is essential for developing vector control strategies.

Molecular Profiling of Ticks and Associated Pathogens: First Report of Rickettsia sibirica, Rickettsia slovaca, and Babesia microti in Ticks From Pakistan

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Global distribution of ticks and their associated tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) presents substantial health concerns for both humans and animals. The present study aimed to investigate the distribution, morpho‐molecular identification, and associated TBPs of diverse tick species collected from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab provinces of Pakistan ...
