PHENOLOGY OF HARD TICKS IN SOUTHERN URAL
Российский паразитологический журнал, 2016 Objective of research. Hard ticks as blood sucking ectoparasites and vectors of animal and human diseases are considered as one of the most important arthropods. Ticks can transmit a variety of diseases among livestock.

Coendangered hard-ticks: threatened or threatening? [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2011 The overwhelming majority of animal conservation projects are focused on vertebrates, despite most of the species on Earth being invertebrates. Estimates state that about half of all named species of invertebrates are parasitic in at least one stage of ...

Mating, Sperm Transfer and Oviposition in Soft Ticks (Acari: Argasidae), a Review
Pathogens, 2023 This review addresses the physiology and behavioral events involved in the reproduction of soft ticks (family Argasidae), with special attention to the events of their adult life: mating, sperm transfer and egg-laying.

In vitro feeding assays for hard ticks [PDF]
Trends in Parasitology, 2007 Prevention of tick bites and transmission of tick-borne pathogens requires the use of molecules that target physiological processes crucial to both tick and pathogen survival. These molecules are best tested in standardized in vitro assays. Because hard ticks require several days to feed to repletion, the development of in vitro feeding assays for ...

Contributions to the knowledge of hard ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) in Colombia [PDF]
Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2018 The known tick fauna of Colombia includes 58 species (15 Argasidae and 43 Ixodidae). To add to the knowledge of the biology of ticks in Colombia, hard ticks (Ixodidae) were collected from domestic animals or vegetation during 2014-2016 in 10 of Colombia's Departments. Ticks were identified to species through morphological examinations.

Hard ticks (Acari, Ixodidae) of Croatia
ZooKeys, 2012 The present paper is based on original and literature data. In Croatia the first studies on the occurrence of ixodid species were made about 80 years ago.

A transcriptome-based phylogenetic study of hard ticks (Ixodidae) [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2019 AbstractHard ticks are widely distributed across temperate regions, show strong variation in host associations, and are potential vectors of a diversity of medically important zoonoses, such as Lyme disease. To address unresolved issues with respect to the evolutionary relationships among certain species or genera, we produced novel RNA-Seq data sets ...

Diversity of Hard Ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) Fauna on Green Habitats of Urban Areas in Eastern Croatia. [PDF]
PathogensHard ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) are vectors of numerous pathogenic microorganisms in humans and animals. In Croatia, very few studies have been conducted on the diversity of hard tick fauna in urban green areas.

High genetic diversity in hard ticks from a China-Myanmar border county
Parasites & Vectors, 2018 Background Many tick species have great morphological similarity and are thus grouped into species complexes. Molecular methods are therefore useful in the classification and identification of ticks.

Hard ticks in Burmese amber with Australasian affinities. [PDF]
Parasitology, 2023 AbstractThree examples of metastriate hard ticks (Ixodida: Ixodidae) with apparent affinities to modern Australasian genera are described from the mid-Cretaceous (ca. 100 Ma) Burmese amber of Myanmar. Two nymphs of Bothriocroton muelleri sp. nov. represent the oldest (and only) fossil record of this genus, living members of which are restricted to ...
