Microsatellite-based genetic diversity of Dermacentor reticulatus in Europe

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2018
Dermacentor reticulatus, also known as ornate dog tick, is an important vector of the causative agents of various tick-borne diseases in humans, livestock and wild animals. The geographical range of D. reticulatus in Europe is fragmented and divided into two main zones: The Western European and the Eastern European zone. To investigate D.

Opinion and report of the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (ANSES) on the assessment of the impact of fox population dynamics on public health

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) can be hunted as a game species. It may also be listed as a “species likely to cause damage” (ESOD – the acronym in French), for public health reasons among others. Conversely, benefits linked to the presence of foxes are also put forward, such as the predation of rodents carrying zoonotic agents.

New data on the occurrence of Dermacentor reticulatus, Dermacentor marginatus, and Ixodes frontalis (Ixodida: Ixodidae) in Germany

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
Most European tick research focuses on Ixodes ricinus, the most prevalent tick species. In this study, we report presence and abundance data for non-I. ricinus ixodid tick species that were collected as part of a large-scale field study conducted across ...

DNA of Ehrlichia muris, hyperendemicity of Babesia microti in Ixodes ricinus and age-related detection of nuclear mitochondrial DNA (NUMTs) in Dermacentor reticulatus from an urban, marshy biotope of South-central Europe

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
The present study was initiated to analyze ticks collected periodically from the vegetation in an urban marshy biotope of central Europe. During the one-year-long study period, 1960 ticks were found, including Ixodes ricinus (n = 1037), Dermacentor ...

The European Badger (Meles meles) as a Host for Ticks and Tick‐Borne Pathogens in Peri‐Urban Environments, Hungary

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
European badgers are opportunistic animals that could serve as important hosts in the life cycle of hard ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) when entering peri‐urban and urban environments. In this study, ticks and spleen samples were collected from badgers (Meles meles) found as roadkill between 2020 and 2021 in peri‐urban habitats in Central Europe, Hungary ...

Ticks and Tick‐Borne Pathogens Encountered by Dogs and Cats: A North European Perspective

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Climate change is increasing the worldwide burden of tick‐borne diseases (TBDs). Dramatic increases in human cases of borreliosis have been reported during the past few decades, including from Finland, located in North Europe. As human exposure to ticks carrying pathogens is increasing, so likely is exposure of dogs and cats.
