Validating a common tick survey method: cloth-dragging and line transects

Pia L. Kjellander et al.

Summary: The cloth-dragging method is commonly used for collecting and counting ticks, but its reliability varies depending on tick density. Higher tick counts in areas with high abundance lead to better repeatability and agreement, while low tick counts in areas with lower abundance result in poorer repeatability but better agreement.

What do we still need to know about Ixodes ricinus?

Jeremy Gray et al.

Summary: Despite decades of research on the castor bean tick in Europe, many important aspects of its basic biology remain elusive, such as seasonal development, abundance, host specificity, and the role of the microbiome in pathogen transmission. Further understanding of these issues will help improve prevention and control measures.

Nuclear (18S-28S rRNA) and mitochondrial genome markers of Carios (Carios) vespertilionis (Argasidae) support Carios Latreille, 1796 as a lineage embedded in the Ornithodorinae: re-classification of the Carios sensu Klompen and Oliver (1993) clade into its respective subgenera

Ben J. Mans et al.

Summary: There is controversy in Argasidae systematics, with recent research aiming to resolve the classification of Carios genus and proposing to elevate some subgenera to genera within the families Argasinae and Ornithodorinae.

Metabolic rate and resource depletion in the tick Ixodes ricinus in response to temperature

Saeed Alasmari et al.

Summary: Understanding the metabolic activity and resource depletion patterns of Ixodes ricinus under different temperature conditions can provide insights into tick activity and the potential impacts of environmental change. The study found that metabolite concentrations decreased exponentially over time at all life-cycle stages and temperatures, with nymphs showing lower resource depletion rates compared to adults. The thermal sensitivity of metabolic rate in Ixodes ricinus was relatively low compared to insects, likely as an adaptation for increased survival during extended inter-feed intervals.
