The ticks (Acari: Ixodida: Argasidae, Ixodidae) of Paraguay
Annals of Tropical Medicine & Parasitology, 2007The ticks reported in Paraguay, which are here reviewed, can be categorized as 'endemic or established' (Argas persicus or a sibling species, Ornithodoros hasei, O. rostratus, O. rudis, O. talaje/O. puertoricensis, Amblyomma aureolatum, Am. auricularium, Am. brasiliense, Am. cajennense, Am. calcaratum, Am. coelebs, Am. dissimile, Am.

Ticks (Ixodida: Ixodidae) parasitising humans in Uruguay
Annals of Tropical Medicine & Parasitology, 2003During routine collections between November 1999 and November 2002, three species of tick (Amblyomma tigrinum, Amblyomma triste and Rhipicephalus sanguineus) were found on humans in southern Uruguay. The finding of R. sanguineus and A. triste on humans is of particular concern because these tick species may be involved in the transmission of the ...

Development of a DNA barcoding system for the Ixodida (Acari: Ixodida)
Mitochondrial DNA, 2013To control the spread of tick-borne diseases, there is an urgent need to develop a reliable technique that can distinguish different species of ticks. DNA barcoding has been proved to be a powerful tool to identify species of arthropods, but this technique has not yet been developed for identifying ticks.

The Argasidae, Ixodidae and Nuttalliellidae (Acari: Ixodida): A World List of Valid Tick Names [PDF]
Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2002 The world's argasid tick fauna comprises 183 species in four genera, namely Argas, Carios, Ornithodoros and Otobius in the family Argasidae. The ixodid tick fauna consists of 241 species in the genus Ixodes and 442 species in the genera Amblyomma, Anomalohimalaya, Bothriocroton, Cosmiomma, Dermacentor, Haemaphysalis, Hyalomma, Margaropus, Nosomma ...

Integrative taxonomy and species delimitation of Rhipicephalus turanicus (Acari: Ixodida: Ixodidae)
International Journal for Parasitology, 2020Rhipicephalus turanicus ticks are widely distributed across the Palearctic and Afrotropics. These two continental populations display differences in morphological characters that raise the question of a potential species boundary. However, the taxonomic status of these morphologically divergent lineages is uncertain because R. turanicus from Cyprus and

Rhipicephalus haemaphysaloides is endemic in South and Southeast Asia, and it is known to parasitise domestic animals such as cattle, horses, sheep, and dogs. Despite infestation on multiple hosts, little attention has been paid to its morphological and molecular variation.

Detection in Malaysia of a Borrelia sp. From Haemaphysalis hystricis (Ixodida: Ixodidae)
Journal of Medical Entomology, 2017Spirochetes 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.

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 ”

Phylogeography of Ticks (Acari: Ixodida)
Annual Review of Entomology, 2019Improved 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.
