Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a comprehensive work summarizing the current state of knowledge of the biology of the hard ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) of Southern Africa (South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Swaziland, Lesotho and Maputo Province, Mozambique). It provides an overview of the history of tick research in Southern Africa and the evolution of our knowledge of the ticks’ distribution and biology, as well as the methods used to determine tick distribution, abundance and host preference. The morphologies of most of the tick species known to occur in Southern Africa are described and illustrated, and their distributions are described and mapped in relation to the biomes of the region. The known hosts for each tick species are listed, and the tick’s host preferences are discussed. Information on most species life cycle in the laboratory and the field, and their seasonal occurrence, is summarized. The diseases of animals and humans transmitted or caused by each tick species are summarized in relation to tick ecology. Aspects of the biology of the major hosts relevant to tick infestations are described, and extensive tick/host and host/tick lists are provided for each country

This book was released on 1966 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study consists of three parallel investigations: (1) survey and critical review of the world-wide literature dealing with the ixodid ticks of Central Africa in general and of the Congo, Rwanda and Burundi in particular; (2) examination and identification of available ixodid tick materials previously collected in Central Africa (Congo, Rwanda and Burundi), comprising some 70,000 specimens; and (3) collection and identification of new materials coupled with field and laboratory observations on the biology and ecology of some of the tick species occurring in the Kivu Province of the Congo and in the Republic of Rwanda. Up to the present time, 78 species of ixodid ticks belonging to nine genera have been reported from Central Africa (Congo, Rwanda and Burundi). Of this, the presence of 75 species in this area is validated by available materials and new collections. The geographical distribution, as well as the list of affected hosts vary with each species. Most of these species occur on a variety of domestic and wild animals and are capable of causing severe economic losses to the livestock industry as well as transmitting agents of human diseases. The results of these studies are presented in such a way that each genus is treated as a discrete unit in which each species is dealt with from the viewpoint of taxonomy, distribution and hosts, biology, relationship to disease, diagnosis, description and illustration. The distribution of each of the species in the Congo, Rwanda and Burundi is plotted individually on maps, and keys to the identification of the adults of each species are presented in the treatment of each genus.

Download or read book The Hard Ticks of the World written by Alberto A. Guglielmone and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 730 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been designed to summarize current, essential information for every one of the world’s 700+ hard tick species. Under each species name, we will cite the original description, followed by information on type depositories, known stages, distribution (by zoogeographic region and ecoregion), hosts, and human infestation (if any). Each species account will also include a list of salient references and, where necessary, remarks on systematic status. We envision eight chapters: six devoted to the major ixodid tick genera (Amblyomma, Dermacentor, Haemaphysalis, Hyalomma, Ixodes, Rhipicephalus), one covering eight minor genera (including two that are fossil), and a concluding summary chapter. There will be two tables on host associations and zoogeography in each major genus chapter, as well as five tables in the summary chapter, for a total of 17 tables. No similar synopsis of the world’s hard tick species exists in any language.​

This book was released on 1994 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ecological relationships found to exist between tick vectors and pathogens in their zootic cycle can profoundly influence patterns of transmission and disease for humans and domestic animals. This book examines the ecological parameters affecting the conservation and regulation of tick-borne zoonoses as well as the geographic and seasonal distributions of those infections. Written by an eminent authority on the subject, the book will be sought after by students and researchers in ecology, invertebrate zoology, parasitology, entomology, public health, and epidemiology.

Download or read book Public Health Significance of Urban Pests written by Xavier Bonnefoy and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2008 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second half of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century witnessed important changes in ecology, climate and human behaviour that favoured the development of urban pests. Most alarmingly, urban planners now face the dramatic expansion of urban sprawl, in which city suburbs are growing into the natural habitats of ticks, rodents and other pests. Also, many city managers now erroneously assume that pest-borne diseases are relics of the past. All these changes make timely a new analysis of the direct and indirect effects of present-day urban pests on health. Such an analysis should lead to the development of strategies to manage them and reduce the risk of exposure. To this end, WHO invited international experts in various fields - pests, pest-related diseases and pest management - to provide evidence on which to base policies. These experts identified the public health risk posed by various pests and appropriate measures to prevent and control them. This book presents their conclusions and formulates policy options for all levels of decision-making to manage pests and pest-related diseases in the future. [Ed.]
