Mapping and monitoring tick (Acari, Ixodida) distribution, seasonality, and host associations in the United Kingdom between 2017 and 2020

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 152-163, March 2023., 2023
The risk of tick‐borne disease is linked to the distribution, seasonal activity and host associations of vector species, all of which can be informed by surveillance and citizen science The Tick Surveillance Scheme (established since 2005) in the United Kingdom monitors distribution changes in Ixodes ricinus and other native or imported vector species ...

Geographic Variation in Cranial Morphology of the Southern Mountain Cavy, Microcavia australis (Rodentia, Caviidae): Taxonomic Implications, with the Description of A New Species [PDF]

, 2017
We analyzed the geographic variation in cranial morphology of the Southern Mountain Cavy, Microcavia australis, throughout of its distributional range. Our analysis allows us to recognize three geographically allopatric morphotypes.
