Note d'application: PARÁSITOS acáridos hematófagos del orden Ixodida, que comprende dos familias: IXODIDAE (garrapatas duras) y ARGASIDAE (garrapatas blandas). Las garrapatas son más grandes que sus parientes, los ÁCAROS. Penetran en la piel de sus huéspedes gracias a partes bucales muy especializadas, en forma de gancho, alimentándose de su sangre. Las garrapatas atacan a todos los grupos de vertebrados terrestres. En los seres humanos producen muchas ENFERMEDADES POR PICADURAS DE GARRAPATAS, como la FIEBRE MACULOSA DE LAS MONTAÑAS ROCOSAS, la TULAREMIA, la BABESIOSIS, la FIEBRE PORCINA AFRICANA y la FIEBRE RECURRENTE.

Note d'application: Blood-sucking acarid parasites of the order Ixodida comprising two families: the softbacked ticks (ARGASIDAE) and hardbacked ticks (IXODIDAE). Ticks are larger than their relatives, the MITES. They penetrate the skin of their host by means of highly specialized, hooked mouth parts and feed on its blood. Ticks attack all groups of terrestrial vertebrates. In humans they are responsible for many TICK-BORNE DISEASES, including the transmission of ROCKY MOUNTAIN SPOTTED FEVER; TULAREMIA; BABESIOSIS; AFRICAN SWINE FEVER; and RELAPSING FEVER. (From Barnes, Invertebrate Zoology, 5th ed, pp543-44)
Note d'indexation: TICK BITES, TICK TOXICOSES and TICK PARALYSIS are available; tick vectors = ARACHNID VECTORS (IM) + TICKS (IM); infection = TICK INFESTATIONS; for chemicals for killing or controlling ticks use ACARICIDES
