Development of a rapid and reliable surveillance method for Ornithodoros turicata americanus in gopher tortoise (Gopherus polyphemus) burrows in the southeastern United States. [PDF]
Med Vet EntomolWe developed a rapid, effective technique for surveying for Ornithodoros turicata, a vector of African swine fever virus using gopher tortoise burrows. When working under a time constraint during tick collection, vacuuming substrate from the top meter of the burrow followed by sifting for soft ticks outperformed CO2 traps.

Ornithodoros (Pavlovskyella) ticks associated with a Rickettsia sp. in Pakistan
Parasites & Vectors, 2022 Background Soft ticks (Ixodida: Argasidae) are medically important ectoparasites that mainly feed on birds and mammals, which play a key role in their geographic distribution and dispersion.

Viruses, 2022 We investigated the possibility that sylvatic circulation of African swine fever virus (ASFV) in warthogs and Ornithodoros ticks had extended beyond the historically affected northern part of South Africa that was declared a controlled area in 1935 to ...

The Journal of Parasitology, 1997 We show by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and western blot that the composition of the soluble extracts of salivary glands (SGE-2) of Ornithodoros erraticus and Ornithodoros moubata is similar to that of the saliva (pilocarpine-induced), and that the extracts are a valid source of antigens for the detection of anti-argasid ...

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 ...
