Gut Microbiome Diversity, Functional Potential, and Ecological Relevance of Hottentotta tamulus

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Long‐read 16S sequencing uncovers the gut microbiome of H. tamulus. A highly conserved and low‐diversity bacterial community dominates the gut fauna. Bacillus and Mycoplasma lineages emerge as predominant candidate endosymbionts. Exploratory profiles reveal potential sex‐specific trends in microbial abundance.

Spotted fever group rickettsiae transmitted by Dermacentor ticks and determinants of their spread in Europe

Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2020
Rickettsiae from the spotted fever group, i.e. the etiological agents of tick-borne lymphadenopathy/ Dermacentor -borne necrotic erythema and lymphadenopathy (TIBOLA /DEBONEL) syndrome, are associated with ticks, including Dermacentor marginatus and

‘Reservoir dogs’: The emerging zoonotic risk associated with European dog imports to the UK

Veterinary Record, Volume 199, Issue 5, Page e238-e249, 5/12 September 2026.
Abstract Background The movement of dogs from continental Europe to the UK poses a growing public health threat due to the associated risk of disease incursions. Current legislation is insufficient to address the risks and pre‐import control measures are focused only on rabies virus and the fox tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. Methods We conducted

Dermacentor bellulus

, 2019
Dermacentor bellulus (Schulze, 1935) This species, originally described by Schulze (1935), has been variously synonymized (D. atrosignatus Sugimoto 1937, D. auratus Teng and Jiang 1991, and D. taiwanensis Camicas et al. 1998) (Apanaskevich and Apanaskevich 2015c). All life history stages were redescribed by Apanaskevich and Apanaskevich (2015c). Unlike

Efficient, Capsule‐Free Nymphal Ixodid Tick Placement for Site‐Specific Attachment to Assess Anti‐Tick Host Behavior and Immune Responses

Current Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Ixodid ticks are among the most widespread and permissive groups of arthropod disease vectors in the world. They transmit various viral, bacterial, protozoan, and even nematode pathogens infective for humans and animals. Ticks are essential to studying pathogen transmission and infection in a new host; however, exposing in vivo models to ticks

Comparative efficacy and studies of mode of action of minerals from diatoms against three species of filth flies

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 478-488, September 2026.
Mortality for diatomaceous earth was observed as early as 2 h after exposure with 50% and 90% mortality at 3.5 and 4.6 h (LT50 and LT90, respectively) for Musca domestica. The LT50 and LT90 increased when the size of the fly species increased (M. domestica to Cochliomyia macellaria to Sarcophaga bullata) and increased for all three from 50 to 70 ...

Cellular immune response of Amblyomma sculptum and Amblyomma americanum to entomopathogenic fungi: Implications for biological tick control

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 582-594, September 2026.
Amblyomma sculptum showed a plasmatocyte‐dominant haemocyte profile. Beauveria bassiana increased plasmatocytes and reduced granulocytes, whereas Metarhizium robertsii did not cause significant changes. Amblyomma americanum showed a granulocyte‐dominant haemocyte profile. Beauveria bassiana reduced total haemocytes and granulocytes. B.

Host, vector, and parasite dynamics: exploring intrinsic and extrinsic factors shaping tick‐borne filarial nematode transmission

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1779-1792, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Tick‐borne filarial nematodes are a complex and understudied group of parasites that rely on ticks for transmission in vertebrates. This review examines how intrinsic and extrinsic factors may influence the successful transmission of filarial nematodes in tick vectors, drawing insights from extensively studied haematophagous dipteran vector ...
