Occurrence of Ornithodoros brasiliensis Aragão (Acari: Argasidae) in São Francisco de Paula, RS, Southern Brazil.
There have been no reports of the endemic Ornithodoros brasiliensis (Aragão) in Rio Grande do Sul, southern Brazil, since the 1950s. In January 2007, 21 O. brasiliensis ticks were collected in a rural area named "Cruzinha" in the municipality of São Francisco de Paula, RS, and another population was sampled later that year (October) in Vargem do Cedro, another rural area of São Francisco de Pau...
متن کاملPhysiological characterization of the hematophagy of Ornithodoros rostratus (Acari: Argasidae) on live hosts.
Ornithodoros rostratus is an argasid tick and its importance is based on its hematophagy and the resulting transmission of pathogens such as Rickettsia rickettsii and Coxiella burnetii to its vertebrate hosts. In the face of a lack of physiological studies related to hematophagy in argasid ticks, this paper aims to identify and characterize the events that occur throughout the feeding by O. ros...
متن کاملPathogenicity of entomopathogenic fungi to Ornithodoros erraticus and 1 Ornithodoros moubata ( Acari : Argasidae ) 2 3 4
24 25 The argasid ticks O. erraticus and O. moubata are of great medical and veterinary 26 importance because they are vectors of the African swine fever virus and several species of 27 human relapsing fever borreliae. Biocontrol of these ticks using entomopathogenic fungi has not 28 been previously reported. We examined the pathogenicity to different developmental stages of 29 these two argasi...
متن کاملDescription of nymphal instars of Ornithodoros mimon Kohls, Clifford & Jones, 1969 (Acari: Argasidae).
Ornithodoros mimon is an argasid tick common on Chiroptera in the Neotropical region, where it also bites humans aggressively. Here we describe for the first time all nymphal instars (N1, N2 and N3) of O. mimon based on optical and scanning electron microscopy. Although the nymphal instars of O. mimon resemble each other closely, there are characters that differentiate them: the N3 are taller t...
متن کاملDetection of human blood in the bat tick Carios (Ornithodoros) kelleyi (Acari: Argasidae) in Iowa.
The argasid tick Carios (Ornithodoros) kelleyi Cooley & Kohls is a common ectoparasite of bats and has been found in massive numbers in homes with associated bat colonies in eastern Iowa. This tick feeds nearly exclusively on bats in nature. Several inhabitants of infested homes complained of "bug bites" at night while asleep that may have resulted in erythematous, edematous, urticaric skin les...
