Ornithodoros kalahariensis, a potential vector for Candidatus Borrelia kalaharica

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
Candidatus Borrelia kalaharica was proposed as bacterial species in 2016 using DNA extracted from a traveller returning from Southern Africa. We investigated DNA of three soft ticks collected in the Kalahari Game Reserve near Maun, Botswana via PCR.

Potential role of ticks as vectors of bluetongue virus

, 2010
When the first outbreak of bluetongue virus serotype 8 (BTV8) was recorded in North-West Europe in August 2006 and renewed outbreaks occurred in the summer of 2007 and again in 2008, the question was raised how the virus survived the winter.

Amblyomma cajennense Sensu Stricto (Fabricius, 1787) and Amblyomma sculptum (Berlese, 1888) Tick Saliva Elicit Immune‐Modulatory Activity in Isolated Murine Macrophages With an Insight Into Proteomic Analysis

Parasite Immunology, Volume 48, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Tick saliva is known to cause immunosuppression and help pathogen transmission. Amblyomma sculptum is a public health concern as a vector of Rickettsia rickettsii. Another close‐related species is Amblyomma cajennense sensu stricto (s.s.). The impact of saliva from these species on murine macrophages remains unclear.

Temporal and spatial heterogeneity in dispersal and demography of a long‐lived philopatric seabird

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Individuals make habitat selection decisions at different moments of their life and in heterogeneous habitats. Understanding the links between environmental changes and demographic patterns during the individuals' life is therefore critical to predict long‐term eco‐evolutionary dynamics and species persistence. However, fitness and persistence
