Ixodidae

open access: yes, 2023
The tick family Ixodidae is represented by 752 species and 17 genera (two genera are fossil). A total of 137 species are present in the Neotropics, most of them (about 100) endemic to this region. From all the genera distributed in the Neotropics, Amblyomma Koch, 1844 is the one with highest specific diversity.

A Regional DNA Barcode Library for Northern Rocky Mountain Arthropods to Support Biodiversity and Molecular Ecological Research

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
We developed the MPG Ranch Arthropod Library (MPG‐AL), a COI DNA barcode reference library for arthropods of the Northern Rocky Mountains, to address gaps in barcode coverage for the western United States. From 86,533 specimens collected in Montana, we generated 52,270 DNA barcodes spanning 38 orders and 1793 species, adding 5154 Barcode Index Numbers (

Ectoparasites of dogs in home environments on the Caribbean slope of Costa Rica Ectoparasitos de cães no ambiente doméstico da vertente Caribe, Costa Rica

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2012
Reports on ectoparasites on dogs in Central America are scarce. The aim of this study was to identify flea, louse and tick species infesting dogs in home environments on the Caribbean slope of Costa Rica, and determine their frequency and coexistence ...

Bulk tissue versus amino acid carbon stable isotopes to reveal the diet and basal resource use of an invasive rodent

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Stable isotope analysis (SIA) is widely used to reconstruct food webs, characterize trophic relationships, and estimate dietary composition. However, bulk tissue SIA (BSIA) can yield imprecise estimates when dietary sources are isotopically similar.

Overview of Arachnids and Arachnology in Iran [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Insect Biodiversity and Systematics, 2019
An overview of the Arachnida and their study in Iran is provided. Besides ancient poetry, relics (going back to 5,000 YBP), and early medical observations (at least 2,000 YBP), the first published taxonomical observations of arachnids from Iran were in ...

Shared and Unique Patterns of Genomic Differentiation and Introgression Between Japanese Stickleback Species Across Three Sympatric Sites

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 2, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Hybridization and introgression frequently occur even between distantly related species. A central question in speciation research is which genomic regions act as barriers to gene flow and how genome‐wide differentiation persists despite hybridization between species.

Argas vespertilionis (Ixodida: Argasidae): A parasite of Pipistrel bat in Western Iran

open access: yesPersian Journal of Acarology, 2013
Ticks (suborder Ixodida) ecologically divided into two nidicolous and non-nidicolous groups. More argasid ticks are classified into the former group whereas they are able to coordinate with the specific host(s) and living inside/adjacent to their host’s ...

A One Health Assessment of Tick and Tick‐Borne Pathogen Diversity and Zoonotic Risk in Hubei Province, Central China

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Ticks and tick‐borne pathogens (TBPs) threaten livestock productivity and public health worldwide, and climate–land‐use change is expanding vector habitats, elevating tick‐borne disease risk. However, TBP diversity and risk in Hubei Province, central China, remain insufficiently defined within a One Health framework.
