Description 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 کاملOrnithodoros guaporensis (Acari, Ixodida: Argasidae), a new tick species from the Guapore River Basin in the Bolivian Amazon.
The soft tick Ornithodoros guaporensis n. sp. (Acari: Ixodida: Argasidae) is described from larvae and adults. Morphological analysis and 16S rDNA sequences are provided. Adults were collected from a rocky fissure inhabited by bats located in the Amazonian forest in north-eastern Bolivia (Beni Department) close to the Guapord River. Larvae were obtained from eggs laid by females collected in th...

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 کاملAbsence of Insect Juvenile Hormones in the American Dog Tick, Dermacentor veriabilis (Say) (Acari: Ixodidae), and in Ornithodoros parkeri Cooley (Acari: Argasidae)
Synganglia, salivary gland, midgut, ovary, fat body and muscle alone and in combination from the ixodid tick, Dennacentor variabilis (Say), or the argasid tick, Omithodoros parkeri Cooley, were incubated in vitro in separate experiments with L-[methyl-3H]methionine and farnesoic acid or with [1-14C]acetate. Life stages examined in D. variabilis were 3-72 hold (after eclosion) unfed nymphs, part...
