Sex Pheromone Regulation of Mating Behavior in the Tick Ornithodoros (Ornithodoros) savignyi (Audouin) (Acari: Argasidae)

Journal of Medical Entomology, 1990
Bioassays performed on Ornithodoros (Ornithodoros) savignyi (Audouin) demonstrated the presence of a female sex pheromone. Unfed adults and fed adults, after various postfeeding periods, were cross-tested. Two independent criteria were used: the percentage of positive male responses and the time elapsed before these responses.

Ornithodoros tholozani bites: A unique clinical picture

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1992
The bites of the cave tick Ornithodoros tholozani produce deep red, crusted nodules or papules up to 1.5 cm in diameter with a central puncture. The erythema is surrounded by a dusky violaceous halo. The lesions are not painful, and no systemic reactions have been observed. We describe the clinical features of multiple bites from O.

African swine fever virus infection in Ornithodoros ticks

Virus Research, 2013
African swine fever virus (ASFV) is an arbovirus which is vectored by soft ticks of the Ornithodoros spp. and in the sylvatic cycle infects wart hogs and bush pigs. ASFV infection of domestic swine causes a high mortality disease. On the other hand, ASFV infection of the tick can result in a high-titered and persistent infection depending upon the ASFV

Ornithodoros moubata: Host immunoglobulin G in tick hemolymph

Experimental Parasitology, 1985
Hemolymph proteins of a soft tick, Ornithodoros moubata, were analyzed immunochemically and biochemically. The components of tick hemolymph proteins were shown to be totally different from the host (rabbit) serum proteins by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with sodium dodecyl sulfate and Coomassie blue or silver stain.

Piroplasmal sporozoites in the Argasid Ornithodoros erraticus (Lucas)

Experientia, 1977
The infective forms of Nuttallia meri, a small-mammal piroplasm, first appear as spindle-shaped sporozoites in and around the salivary glands of Ornithodoros erraticus (small race) 30 days after the ticks had fed on infected blood. O. erraticus is the only soft tick so far proved to transmit a piroplasm.
