Experiments on the ectoparasitic deer ked that often attacks humans; preferences for body parts, colour and temperature

Bulletin of Entomological Research, 2009
AbstractThe deer ked (Lipoptena cervi) can fail in its host search. Host search fails when an individual deer ked irreversibly accepts a host unsuitable for its reproduction (e.g. a human) and drops its wings. In northern Europe, the main host of the deer ked is the moose (Alces alces).

New records of Bartonella in deer keds in Lithuania

2017
Bartonella genus contains more than 30 different species of gram-negative intracellular bacteria that infect a wide variety of mammalian hosts. Many different species of hematophagous arthropods, including deer keds, have been confirmed as important vectors in Bartonella transmission.

Molecular characterization of Bartonella bacteria in deer keds (Lipoptena) from Lithuania [PDF]

, 2018
Bartonella bacteria can live inside cells and in isolated body areas protected from the immune system of host and antibiotics. Bartonella spp. caused disease in humans and animals named bartonellosis. Deer keds are transmitted Bartonella infection to the deer and humans by directly biting.

Detection of anaplasma phagocytophilum in Lipoptena fortisetosa deer keds from moose and roe deer in Lithuania

2018
Deer keds are a blood-sucking ectoparasites of the family Hippoboscidae. One of the species – Lipoptena fortisetosa were analyzed by a nested DNA polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique from moose (Alces alces) and roe deer (Capreolus capreolus). L. fortisetosa identification has been done using four primers CI-J-1632, CI-N-2329, CI-J-1718, CI-N-2191.

Investigation of Anaplasma phagocytophilum in Lipoptena fortisetosa deer keds from moose and roe deer in Lithuania

2018
Deer keds are a blood-sucking ectoparasites belonging to the family Hippoboscidae. Anaplasma phagocytophilum is a tickborne gram-negative bacteria that causes human granulocytic anaplasmosis. The presence of A. phagocytophilum was previously confirmed in deer keds Lipoptena cervi (Buss et al., 2016, de Bruin et al., 2015).

First report of the deer ked, Lipoptena cervi, and associated pathogens in southern Québec, Canada

Journal of Medical Entomology
Abstract Deer keds (Lipoptena cervi), an introduced European species, are expanding their geographic range in North America. We document their first recorded presence in Québec, Canada, map their distribution, and highlight the detection of pathogens of potential public health relevance.

Distribution of deer keds among different species of cervids and their infection with Bartonella spp. in Lithuania [PDF]

, 2018
Deer keds (genus Lipoptena), are hematophagous ectoparasites which typically infest wild ruminants. However, the information on the distribution and abundance of deer keds on their mammalian hosts is still scarce, especially in Lithuania. Recently, Lipoptena cervi has been confi rmed as vector of some Bartonella species. Bartonella pathogens are highly
