Gaps and opportunities in on‐host winter tick (Dermacentor albipictus) surveillance in North America

Journal of Wildlife Management
The investigation and management of the impacts of winter tick infestations on moose in North America necessitates coordinated surveillance and intervention efforts. The current absence of searching for winter ticks on other potential ungulate hosts, largely based on historical beliefs of predilection from limited captive studies, has created a ...

Dermacentor albipictus ON MOOSE (Alces alces) IN ONTARIO

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1979
Fifty-five moose (Alces alces) collected from 1963 to 1965 in the Chapleau Crown Game Preserve of northern Ontario were examined for ectoparasites. Dermacentor albipictus was the only parasite recovered. D. albipictus was absent from 15 moose examined during June, July and August; first observed on 1 or 2 moose examined in September; and present on all

ORIGIN OFDERMACENTOR ALBIPICTUS(ACARI: IXODIDAE) ON ELK IN THE YUKON, CANADA

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2014
Winter ticks (Dermacentor albipictus) on elk (Cervus elaphus canadensis) have recently increased in numbers in the Yukon, Canada, potentially posing risks to other indigenous host species in the region. To evaluate the regional source of winter ticks in the Yukon, we sequenced one nuclear (ITS-2) and two mitochondrial (16SrRNA and COI) genes, and ...

Factors Influencing the Potential Establishment of the Winter Tick (Dermacentor albipictus) in Alaska

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1990
The winter tick (Dermacentor albipictus) is not known to occur in Alaska. Survival and development of free-living (i.e., non-host-associated) stages of the tick were studied at three sites in central and southern Alaska. Female ticks survived, oviposited, and eggs hatched at all sites.
