First detection of Borrelia miyamotoi in Ixodes ricinus ticks from northern Italy

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2018
BackgroundBorrelia miyamotoi is a spirochete transmitted by several ixodid tick species. It causes a relapsing fever in humans and is currently considered as an emerging pathogen. In Europe, B. miyamotoi seems to occur at low prevalence in Ixodes ricinus

On the egg of the tick, Ixodes ricinus L.

open access: yesParasitology, 1948
The egg of Ixodes ricinus L. is described, and the increase in size during development is noted. It is suggested that the increase is due to the absorption of water. The egg wall consists of exo- and endochorion with a thin vitelline membrane, which becomes thicker as development proceeds and assumes a laminated appearance.

Ixodes ricinus and Borrelia prevalence at the Arctic Circle in Norway

open access: yesTicks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2014
The distribution limit of Ixodes ricinus ticks in northwestern Europe (Brønnøy, Norway, 1° south of the Arctic Circle), has been known since the 1930s. To reconfirm this finding and extend studies in the areas adjacent to the Arctic Circle (66°33' N), ticks were collected from dogs and cats in 8 districts in northern Norway from 64°56' N to 68°48' N ...

Deer presence rather than abundance determines the population density of the sheep tick, Ixodes ricinus, in Dutch forests

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2017
Background Understanding which factors drive population densities of disease vectors is an important step in assessing disease risk. We tested the hypothesis that the density of ticks from the Ixodes ricinus complex, which are important vectors for tick ...
