Introduction of the ectoparasite Rhipicephalus pulchellus (Ixodida: Ixodidae) into Connecticut with a human traveler from Tanzania, and a review of its importation records into the United States

Journal of medical entomology, 2023
Globalization, increased frequency of travel, and a rise in legal and illegal animal trades can introduce exotic ticks into the United States. We herein report the importation of a male Rhipicephalus pulchellus (Gerstäcker) on a human traveler returning ...

Detection in Malaysia of a Borrelia sp. From Haemaphysalis hystricis (Ixodida: Ixodidae)

Journal of Medical Entomology, 2017
Spirochetes from the Borrelia genus are known to cause diseases in humans, namely Lyme disease and relapsing fever. These organisms are commonly transmitted to humans by arthropod vectors including ticks, mite, and lice. Here, we report the molecular detection of a Borrelia sp.

Molecular Evidence of Ehrlichia canis (Rickettsiales: Anaplasmataceae) in Ticks (Ixodida: Ixodidae) Associated with Dogs (Carnivora: Canidae) from Nuevo Leon, Mexico.

Vector Borne and Zoonotic Diseases, 2023
Background: Ehrlichia canis is transmitted by ticks causing Canine monocytic ehrlichiosis, which is considered one of the most critical tickborne pathogens. Materials and Methods: This study aimed to identify by PCR technique E. canis in ticks associated

First report of teratological anomalies in Amblyomma and Dermacentor ticks (Acari: Ixodida: Ixodidae) from Taiwan and the Philippines

Systematic and Applied Acarology
Teratological anomalies are congenital abnormalities manifested in the body structure of an organism because of developmental aberrations. These congenital abnormalities, also known as teratological forms, are rare in ticks (Ixodida) and include cases of

New report of Haemaphysalis longicornis (Ixodida: Ixodidae) in Mecklenburg County, Virginia from field collections

Journal of medical entomology
Haemaphysalis longicornis (Neumann) was first established in New Jersey and has rapidly spread across most of the eastern United States. This tick has the potential to infest a wide variety of hosts and can reproduce quickly via parthenogenesis ...

Ticks (Parasitiformes: Ixodida: Ixodidae) parasites of wild Baird’s tapirs (Mammalia: Perissodactyla) in the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico

International Journal of Acarology, 2023
Tapirs are common hosts of ticks and an individual can be infested by up to seven different tick species. We explored the parasitic tick fauna associated with wild Baird’s tapirs (Tapirus bairdii) from the Yucatan Peninsula.

TICKS ( Ixodida )

2002
Ticks are notorious as vectors of human and other animal disease agents. They transmit a greater variety of infectious organisms than any other group of bloodsucking arthropods and, worldwide, are second only to mosquitoes in terms of their public health and veterinary importance. Ticks constitute the suborder “ Ixodida ” of the order “ Parasitiformes ”

How long do ticks live? A survey of lifespan, life cycle and longevity in Ixodida (Acari: Parasitiformes)

Zoosymposia
Ticks are hematophagous parasites transmitting pathogens to animals and humans. This review summarizes the current understanding of their lifespan, life cycles and longevity, which is essential for preventing and controlling tick-borne diseases.

Phylogeography of Ticks (Acari: Ixodida)

Annual Review of Entomology, 2019
Improved understanding of tick phylogeny has allowed testing of some biogeographical patterns. On the basis of both literature data and a meta-analysis of available sequence data, there is strong support for a Gondwanan origin of Ixodidae, and probably Ixodida.
