Hard ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) and tick-borne diseases of sheep and goats in Africa: A review [PDF]
Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2023 Ticks are leading vectors of economically important pathogens that affect small ruminants due to favourable climatic conditions across different regions of the African continent. They are responsible for both direct and indirect economic losses in the livestock industry.

Hard ticks and their bacterial endosymbionts (or would be pathogens)
Folia Microbiologica, 2013The symbiotic microorganisms of arthropod vectors are highly significant from several points of view, partly due to their possible roles in the transmission of pathogenic causative agents by blood-sucking vectors. Although ticks are well studied because of their significance to human health, novel microbial associations remain to be described.

Color Patterning in Hard Ticks (Acari: Ixodidae)
Journal of Medical Entomology, 2017Among the hard ticks (Acari: Ixodidae), many species in the section Metastriata have intricate ornamentation on the scutum that is often used as a taxonomic character. However, the biological function(s) of this ornamentation remains unknown. Here, we summarize the main functions of color patterns recognized in the animal kingdom-thermoregulation ...
