Genetic diversity of Dermacentor nitens (Acari: Ixodidae) collected on horses from western Cuba. [PDF]

J Med Entomol
Abstract The tropical horse tick, Dermacentor nitens Neumann, 1897, has a wide distribution throughout the Neotropics, and is a vector of protozoan haemoparasites that cause equine piroplasmosis. Despite this, little is known about the genetic diversity of this tick species, particularly in Cuba, where horses are important domestic ...

Life cycle and parasitic competence of Dermacentor nitens Neumann, 1897 (Acari: Ixodidae) on different animal species [PDF]

Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2017
The objective of this study was to evaluate the life cycle and parasitic competence of Dermacentor nitens (Neumann, 1897) on different animal species. Experimental infestations were induced in five specimens each of seven species of possible hosts: rabbits, horses, sheep, cows, guinea pigs, birds and dogs.

Incidental infestations of humans by hard ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) in Colombia: Case reports and record of Amblyomma cajennense sensu stricto [PDF]

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
In Colombia, there are few studies that describe tick parasitism in humans, as well as its demographic and ecological characteristics. Additionally, multiple cases of human rickettsiosis caused by highly pathogenic Rickettsia species have been reported ...

Molecular Characterization and Epidemiology of Anaplasmataceae in Ticks and Domestic Animals in the Colombian Caribbean [PDF]

Animals
Tick-borne diseases (TBD) pose a significant threat to both animal and public health, particularly in tropical regions. In the Colombian Caribbean region, there is limited knowledge of the epidemiology of TBD in domestic animals and their vectors.

Transmission of Babesia caballi by Dermacentor nitens (Acari: Ixodidae) Is Restricted to One Generation in the Absence of Alimentary Reinfection on a Susceptible Equine Host [PDF]

Journal of Medical Entomology, 2008
The tropical horse tick, Dermacentor nitens, is a natural vector of Babesia caballi in the Americas. B. caballi, one of the etiologic agents of equine piroplasmosis, occurs widely throughout the world, but the United States and a few other countries are considered to be free of infection. B. caballi is transovarially transmitted by the one-host tick D.
