Importance of Considering Seasonality in Tick Activity When Assessing Spatial Expansion Potential: A Case Study on <i>Haemaphysalis longicornis</i>. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
In this study, we highlight the importance of incorporating ecologically relevant predictors when modelling habitat suitability for species with distinct seasonality, using Haemaphysalis longicornis ticks as a case study and drawing stark comparisons to earlier studies.

Multiple Introductions of the Asian Longhorned Tick (<i>Haemaphysalis longicornis</i>) to the United States Revealed Using Mitogenomics. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
The Asian longhorned tick, Haemaphysalis longicornis, is a significant global vector and threat to both agriculture and public health. Formerly known only in the Eastern Hemisphere, parthenogenetic ALT have been reported from 20 states across the eastern and central US, with a pattern of expansion suggestive of multiple distinct populations.

Borrelia burgdorferi Sensu Stricto DNA in Field-Collected Haemaphysalis longicornis Ticks, Pennsylvania, United States

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2021
We collected questing Haemaphysalis longicornis ticks from southeastern counties of Pennsylvania, USA. Of 263 ticks tested by PCR for pathogens, 1 adult female was positive for Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto, yielding a 0.4% infection rate. Continued
