This work is intended as a consensus list of valid tick names, following recent revisionary studies, wherein we recognize 896 species ticks in 3 families. The Nuttalliellidae monotypic, containing the single entity Nuttalliella namaqua. Argasidae consists 193 species, but there widespread disagreement concerning genera this family, and fully 133 argasids will have to be further studied before any can reached on issue genus-level classification. Ixodidae comprises 702 14 genera: Amblyomma...
Abstract Ecological specialization to restricted diet niches is driven by obligate, and often maternally inherited, symbionts in many arthropod lineages. These heritable typically form evolutionarily stable associations with arthropods that can last for millions of years. Ticks were recently found harbour such an obligate symbiont, Coxiella ‐ LE , synthesizes B vitamins cofactors not obtained sufficient quantities from blood diet. In this study, the examination 81 tick species shows some...
The hard tick family Ixodidae currently comprises 762 species worldwide, but an analysis of the occurrence these in world´s countries, territories, zoogeographic regions (Afrotropical, Australasian, Nearctic, Neotropical, Oriental, Palearctic) and remote islands has not been attempted since 2009. Here, we present critically discuss distributional data for all accepted ixodid known from 226 countries territories six realms. This summary biogeography should prove to be a valuable reference...
Amblyomma cajennense F. is one of the best known and studied ticks in New World because its very wide distribution, economical importance as pest domestic ungulates, association with a variety animal human pathogens. Recent observations, however, have challenged taxonomic status this tick indicated that intraspecific cryptic speciation might be occurring. In present study, we investigate evolutionary demographic history examine genetic structure based on analyses three mitochondrial...
References to the descriptions and redescriptions of 742 species Ixodidae published from 1758 December 31, 2019 are compiled, with goal enabling tick taxonomists readily access this diffuse often confusing literature. Additionally, data resulting effort critically analyzed demonstrate problems attending correct identification several that medical, veterinary and/or evolutionary importance, highlight need for new or enhanced diagnostic techniques. Recent morphological molecular studies...
Rhipicephalus australis Fuller, the Australian cattle tick, is reinstated and adults larvae redescribed from material collected in Australia. This long ignored boophilid was previously known as R. microplus Canestrini for specimens reported Australia New Caledonia. The of are easily recognized by a combination characters, such ventro-medial spurs palpal segments male, abundant, plumose, pale white setae on dorsum female. Other details, coxal adanal shields more variable among different...
The cattle tick, Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus, economically impact industry in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. morphological genetic differences among R. microplus strains have been documented literature, suggesting that biogeographical ecological separation may resulted boophilid ticks from America/Africa those Australia being different species. To test hypothesis presence species, herein we performed a series experiments to characterize reproductive performance...
A major, but not exhaustive, literature revision has been made to compile the names of Ixodidae from Linnaeus present. Names are classified as valid, synonyms, lapsus, incertae sedis, nomina dubia, nuda, incorrect and suppressed. Notes included fo<a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11250-012-0218-x">r </a>confusions misidentifications among different tick species. The lists in this study neither aimed be consensual nor focusing stabilize nomenclature, rather part a discussion on species...
