| spotted fever group rickettsial infections in australia. | more than four decades ago, rickettsia australis was discovered to be the etiologic agent of queensland tick typhus (qtt), yet many unanswered questions persist about the ecology, epidemiology, and clinical features of this disease. we review 46 previously published cases of qtt along with 16 cases discovered by active surveillance. qtt is usually a mild disease. patients often have regional lymphadenopathy and eschars. some have vesicular rashes. because clinical features overlap, serologic tes ... | 1991 | 1962102 |
| genetic variation within the ticks ixodes holocyclus and ixodes cornuatus from south-eastern australia. | ticks from mainland australia (victoria, new south wales and queensland) and tasmania, identified morphologically as either ixodes holocyclus or ixodes cornuatus, were compared genetically using 24 enzyme loci. the results showed that ticks from three localities in victoria were genetically similar to i. cornuatus in tasmania, but both groups had fixed genetic differences at >45% of loci compared with other ticks on the mainland. in addition, there were fixed genetic differences at 0-60% of loci ... | 2000 | 11027781 |

| phylogenetic and phylogeographic relationships in ixodesholocyclus and ixodescornuatus (acari: ixodidae) inferred from cox1 and its2 sequences. | we inferred the phylogenetic and phylogeographic relationships in ticks, which were identified morphologically as ixodes holocyclus and ixodes cornuatus, from mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) and nuclear internal transcribed spacer 2 (its2) sequences. we obtained cox1 (640bp) and its2 (527-568bp) sequences from 429 ticks from 49 localities in tasmania, victoria, new south wales and queensland, australia. our analyses show that there are two species of ixodes in eastern australia ... | 2011 | 21540032 |
