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

Proteases of haematophagous arthropod vectors are involved in blood-feeding, yolk formation and immunity : a review [PDF]
Ticks, triatomines, mosquitoes and sand flies comprise a large number of haematophagous arthropods considered vectors of human infectious diseases. While consuming blood to obtain the nutrients necessary to carry on life functions, these insects can ...
