| the tick vectors of cowdria ruminantium (ixodoidea, ixodidae, genus amblyomma) and their distribution. | twelve species of amblyomma are presently known to be capable of transmitting cowdria ruminantium. of these a. variegatum is the most important and widely distributed vector in africa. it has also extended its range considerably outside this continent, eastward to the yemen arab republic and to the islands of madagascar, réunion and mauritius, and westward to the cape verde islands and to some of the west indian islands. a. hebraeum is probably the only field vector in most parts of southern afr ... | 1987 | 3329325 |

| human otoacariasis: a retrospective study from an area of sri lanka. | intra-aural ticks were present in 870 (15.2%) of 5714 patients who reported with ear-related complaints to the ear, nose and throat ward at ratnapura hospital, sabaragamuwa province, sri lanka, from january 2000 to december 2001. a retrospective study of 383 of these otoacariasis cases showed that the majority (70.8%) of surgically-removed ticks were nymphal amblyomma integrum, together with nymphal and adult rhipicephalus haemaphysaloides, r. sanguineus, hyalomma brevipunctata, h. marginatum, a ... | 2004 | 15186938 |
| [rickettsia africae, the agent of african tick-bite fever: an emerging pathogen in the west indies and reunion island (indian ocean)]. | rickettsia africae is the agent of african tick bite fever, an emerging disease transmitted by amblyomma ticks in sub-saharan africa. in 1998, we reported the first documented case of r. africae in the new world, in a patient who had returned from guadeloupe. in order to confirm the presence of r. africae in the west indies, entomologic surveys were conducted from 1999 to 2003 to collect amblyomma, which are considered as potential vectors and reservoirs of the bacteria. ticks were used as epide ... | 2004 | 15462202 |
| colonization of grande comore island by a lineage of rhipicephalus appendiculatus ticks. | union of the comoros suffered a severe east coast fever epidemic in 2004. rhipicephalus appendiculatus was probably involved in pathogen transmission as this competent tick species, although previously absent from comoros, was sampled on 4 animals on one geographical site during the epidemic. we carried out an entomological survey on all three islands of union of the comoros to establish cattle tick species distribution with a special emphasis on r. appendiculatus. we investigated r. appendicula ... | 2011 | 21414194 |
