Copulation in Ixodid Ticks

The Journal of Parasitology, 1971
Copulation of Hyalomma excavatum and Rhipicephalus sanguineus belonging to the Metastriata group of the Ixodidae has been studied. Methods of observation and inducing copulation off the host are described. Similarities and differences in male behavior of the Ixodidae have been compared with Argasidae. It has been found that the pattern of copulation in

IXODID TICKS ON FERAL SWINE IN FLORIDA

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1984
More than 99% of the 645 feral swine (Sus scrofa L.) in southern Florida harbored ixodid ticks. Dermacentor variabilis (American dog tick) was present on 99.6% of the swine and comprised 82.5% of the ticks collected. Amblyomma maculatum (Gulf Coast tick) occurred on 85.9% of the hosts and 17.4% of the collections were of this species.

Ixodid ticks parasitizing wild carnivores in Romania

Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2017
In Romania, data regarding hard-tick diversity and tick-host associations in wild carnivores are scarce. We aimed to identify tick species in wild carnivores and to establish reliable data on tick-host associations. The study was conducted in various Romanian localities from all five ecoregions found in the country.

Ixodid ticks in Bosnia and Herzegovina

Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2010
Ticks of the Ixodidae family represent an enormous threat to human and animal health. From January to December 2004, a total of 10,050 ixodid ticks were collected from 26 areas in Bosnia and Herzegovina and determined to the species level. Ticks were collected from dogs, sheep, cows, goats, rodents, humans and plants.

[Ixodid ticks and rickettsia].

Trudy Instituta imeni Pastera, 1995
Ixodid ticks are an important link in the ecology of rickettsiae. Some tick species became specific vectors as well as reservoirs of certain species of rickettsiae ensuring their long lasting maintenance via interstadial and transovarial transmission often over generations in nature.

On the spermatophore of ixodid ticks

Journal of Insect Physiology, 1983
Abstract Structure and formation of the spermatophore and the extrusion of its contents in ixodid ticks were studied. The structure of the ectospermatophore resembles that of argasid ticks, whereas that of the endospermatophore differs completely; it is composed of several organelles which are absent in argasids.

Organ culture of ixodid-tick salivary glands

Experimental & Applied Acarology, 1990
This work describes an organ-culture method for isolated salivary glands of the ixodid tick Amblyomma hebraeum Koch. The support medium is a TC 199-1% agarose gel with no hormonal or undefined supplements. I used a fluid-transport assay for measuring viability of salivary glands. When cultured at 26 degrees C, female glands secreted fluid at 65% on day

IXODID TICKS FROM PANTHERS AND BOBCATS IN FLORIDA

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1995
Ixodid ticks were present in all 189 samples examined from 53 Florida panthers (Felis concolor coryi, 104 collections) and 85 bobcats (Felis rufus floridana) in Florida (USA) between 1974 and 1991. We identified 3,251 ticks from panthers and 918 from bobcats. Specimens of Dermacentor variabilis, Ixodes scapularis, I. affinis, Amblyomma maculatum, and A.

Ixodid tick species attaching to dogs in Hungary

Veterinary Parasitology, 2005
A survey was carried out to investigate the occurrence of hard tick species (Acari: Ixodidae) infesting domestic dogs in Hungary. Forty veterinary clinics from a wide geographical area were asked to collect hard ticks from dogs and to complete a questionnaire. In total, 25 veterinary clinics submitted 900 ticks from 310 dogs.
