Among the zoonotic agents transmitted by ticks, infections caused by the intracellular pathogens from the Anaplasmataceae family and piroplasmids (<i>Babesia/Theileria</i> spp.) are particularly notable due to the substantial economic losses they cause in the livestock sector. A study was carried out to assess the prevalence of these pathogens in ticks from ruminants in the province of Valencia (Eastern Iberian Peninsula). Between 2019 and 2022, 1674 ticks were collected from 163 domestic and wild ruminants. The tick species were identified using molecular and morphological features and included <i>Rhipicephalus</i> spp. (<i>Rhipicephalus bursa</i> and <i>Rhipicephalus sanguineus</i>) (88.7%), <i>Haemaphysalis sulcata</i> (5.9%), <i>Ixodes ricinus</i> (3.6%) and <i>Dermacentor marginatum</i> (1.2%). The Spanish ibex (<i>Capra pyrenaica</i>) was found to be at greater risk of infestation by <i>Haemaphysalis</i> compared to other ruminants. Polimerase Chain Reaction (PCR) analysis was performed on 108 individual ticks from different hosts, with 16.7% testing positive for members of the Anaplasmataceae family and 39.8% for <i>Theileria</i> spp. Sequencing of 10 positive samples from each pathogen group revealed the presence of <i>Anaplasma ovis, Anaplasma platys, Ehrlichia</i> spp., <i>Theileria ovis</i> and <i>Theileria capreoli</i>. No <i>Anaplasma phagocytophilum</i> or <i>Babesia</i> spp. were detected. Further research is essential for improved management of ticks and the diseases they transmit in the study area.</p>","PeriodicalId":18350,"journal":{"name":"Medical and Veterinary Entomology","volume":"39 2","pages":"301-314"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142877399","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
