Ixodid ticks on dogs in southern Mozambique
Onderstepoort J Vet Res, 2004 The objective of this study was to determine the species and distribution of ticks infesting domestic dogs in southern Mozambique. To this end 89 collections were taken from dogs and the geographic coordinates of the localities at which they were made noted. Fifty-eight of these collections were from animals in the city of Maputo and 16 from animals

Ixodid ticks in the Western Ukraine
Scientific Messenger of LNU of Veterinary Medicine and Biotechnologies, 2020 During the 2018–2019 years, 2884 ticks were collected from five species of animals, including pets (dogs and cats), cattle (cows and horses) and wildlife (wild boar) in Khmelnytsky, Chernivtsi and Vinnytsia regions. Ixodid ticks were identified as: D. reticulatus (2370; 82.2 % of all collected ticks), I. ricinus 510 (17.7 %) and 4 of I. hexagonus (0.1 %

Automated identification of spotted‐fever tick vectors using convolutional neural networks
Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 829-841, December 2025.We evaluate the performance of convolutional neural networks (CNN) AlexNet, ResNet‐50 and MobileNetV2 for the automated identification of tick species capable of transmitting spotted fever. CNNs achieved accuracy rates of ~90% in identifying ticks and showed sensitivities of 59%–100% according to species, sex, position or image resolution.

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 664-674, December 2025.Ectoparasites showed significant δ15N enrichment compared to their hosts, indicating trophic enrichment, but δ13C preservation varied. Lice, fleas and ticks preserve their hosts' isotopic fingerprints to varying degrees, with lice reflecting host dietary patterns most closely, likely due to their exclusive, host‐specific feeding behaviour. The presence
