Infecção por riquétsias em carrapatos de aves silvestres em duas ecorregiões da Argentina [PDF]
Several tick-borne Rickettsia species are recognized human pathogens in Argentina. Here we evaluated rickettsial infection in ticks collected on passerine birds during 2011-2012 in two eco-regions of Argentina.

Evaluation of Disease Causality of Rare Ixodes ricinus-Borne Infections in Europe
In Europe, Ixodes ricinus ticks transmit pathogens such as Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato and tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV). In addition, there is evidence for transmission to humans from I. ricinus of Anaplasma phagocytophilum, Babesia divergens,
