Absence of Francisella tularensis in Finnish Ixodes ricinus and Ixodes persulcatus ticks
Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2021 Francisella tularensis subsp. holarctica is the causative agent of tularaemia in Europe. Finland is a high-incidence region for tularaemia, with mosquito bites as the most common sources of infection. However, in Central and Western Europe, ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) have been suggested as the main vectors.
