摘要

在此,我们提出在津巴布韦牛身上首次检测到鳞状双盲瘤(Dönitz, 1909)。津巴布韦的小农严重依赖他们的牲畜,主要是牛和山羊。尽管非常重视养牛,但该国目前没有对蜱虫和蜱传疾病进行系统监测。鳞片蜱属蜱属的一部分,是一种颜色鲜艳的华丽蜱,具有很大的传播媒介潜力,可能对津巴布韦的牛和养牛产生有害影响。本报告记录了鳞片蜱的雌雄蜱的形态鉴定,并利用两个核糖体基因,在分子上表征为鳞片蜱。关于这种蜱虫是如何被引入津巴布韦的,我们可以做出假设;然而,它的存在突出表明,需要有一个系统的监测规划,不仅要跟踪上述新引进的蜱虫,而且要跟踪该蜱虫种群在津巴布韦的当前分布。

First detection of Amblyomma lepidum (Dönitz, 1909) in Zimbabwe.

Herewith we present the first detection of Amblyomma lepidum (Dönitz, 1909) on cattle in Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe's smallholder farmers rely heavily on their livestock, mainly cattle and goats. Even though great importance is placed on cattle farming, no systematic surveillance of tick and tick-borne diseases is currently being conducted in the country. Forming part of the Amblyomma genus, A. lepidum is a brightly ornate tick with great vector potential, which could have harmful effects on cattle and cattle farming in Zimbabwe. This report documents the presence of both male and female A. lepidum ticks that were morphologically identified, and with the use of two ribosomal genes, were molecularly characterised as A. lepidum. Hypotheses can be made as to how this tick was introduced into Zimbabwe; however, its presence highlights the need for a systematic surveillance programme to track not only new introductions, such as the aforementioned, but the current distribution of this tick population in Zimbabwe.

期刊介绍: Experimental and Applied Acarology publishes peer-reviewed original papers describing advances in basic and applied research on mites and ticks. Coverage encompasses all Acari, including those of environmental, agricultural, medical and veterinary importance, and all the ways in which they interact with other organisms (plants, arthropods and other animals). The subject matter draws upon a wide variety of disciplines, including evolutionary biology, ecology, epidemiology, physiology, biochemistry, toxicology, immunology, genetics, molecular biology and pest management sciences.
