Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 2, Page 360-370, February 2025.Our findings suggest that mowing in general has a negative impact on abundant arthropod groups in grassland, regardless of the method used. Tractor‐driven double‐blade bar mowers do not seem to be a truly insect‐friendly alternative to a conventional disc mower.

Establishing Historical Baselines of Arthropod Assemblages Using Rodent Paleomiddens
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 2, February 2025.ABSTRACT Aim Arthropods are under‐represented in paleoecological studies but are critical agents in ecological processes. Despite rigorous documentation of diverse arthropod assemblages from ancient rodent (or paleo) middens worldwide, their use for studying ancient arthropod diversity has stalled in recent decades. Here, we review published studies to

Ticks and tick‐borne pathogens in selected abattoirs and a slaughter slab in Kumasi, Ghana
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 5, September 2024.•Amblyomma variegatum was the predominant tick species. •Zoonotic pathogens R. africae, R. aeschlimannii, C. burnetii and CCHFV were identified. •Abattoir workers are at risk of zoonotic infections. Abstract Background Ticks are vectors of pathogens that affect the health of animals and humans. With the constant trade of livestock across borders, there

Inventory and update on argasid ticks and associated pathogens in Algeria
New Microbes and New Infections, 2018 Argasid ticks include vectors of relapsing fevers caused by Borrelia spp. in humans, and they can transmit arboviruses and other bacterial pathogens. Knowledge about soft ticks (Ixodida: Argasidae) in Algeria is incomplete, and distribution data need to ...

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 366-371, September 2024.The presence of α‐Gal epitope ( was confirmed by the presence of reactive proteins of >250 kDa in samples from engorged and unfed H. lusitanicum ticks. The highest concentrations of α‐Gal were detected in salivary glands. Neither sex nor diet influenced the concentration of α‐Gal, which seems to indicate its endogenous production and its possible ...
