affects chickens in southeastern US; head is angular; no ctenidia; may attack other animals like horse, cattle, dogs, rats, etc.; may cause module formation and ulcers in the comb and wattles and around the eyes of chickens

affects man primarily but may also attack pigs, rats, skunks, etc; thorax reduced; frons sharply angled or angular; cause ulceration and subsequent bacterial infection in the feet

occurs in brown rats but readily bites man; common in brown and black rats; frons smoothly rounded; mesopleural rod present; genal and pronotal ctenidia absent; Bubonic plague (P. pestis) and Typhus (R. typhi)

; head is elongated; most common species in dogs and cats

Page 15: parasitology species

integument bears spine-like processes; animal exudes waxy or oily material from the ears that the animal tends to shake the head and scratch the ears

attacks man, domestic and wild animals including birds in Africa; reservoir host for African Swine fever virus and African relapsing fever (Borrelia recurrentis); a vector of Coxiella burnetti (O. fever), A. pullorum and B. anserine

some species may have a series of “marginal grooves” or a row of posterior notch called “festoons"; 2. genital opening is in the ventral midline; anus is posterior

Principal species associated with “tick paralysis” in cattle; Three-host tick; Transmits babesiosis cattle, anaplasmosis, louping ill, rickettsial tick borne fever of sheep and tick pyemia of lambs caused by Staphylococcus aureus

Most common cattle tick in the Philippines; One-host tick; Transmits Babesia bigemina, B. bovis, Anaplasma marginale, Coxiella burnetti and Borrelia theileri

Three-host tick; Transmits theileriosis (Theileria parva and T. mutans), Hepatozoon canis, Babesia bigemina and Rickettsia canori (tick bite fever)

Common in the Philippines; Primarily affects dogs; Three-host tick; Transmits Babesia canis, B. equi, B. caballi, Ehrlichia canis, Hepatozoon canis, Rickettsia canis, Pasteurella tularensis and Coxiella burnetti; cause tick paralysis

Three-host tick; Ornate; Causes tick paralysis; Transmits Rickettsia rickettsii (D. andersoni is the primary vector), Anaplasma marginale, Babesia canis, Coxiella burnetti, Leptospira Pomona

Characterized by the presence of white spot on the scutum of female; Three-host tick; Transmits Rickettsia ruminantium (heartwater disease), Q fever. Tularemia and RMSF

found in the nasal passages and nasal sinuses of dogs in US, Hawaii and Australia; causes reddining of the nasal mucosa, sneezing, head-shaking and rubbing of the nose

vector of Rickettsia tsutsugamushi which causes Mite or Scrub typhus or River Valley fever of man in Japan and New Delhi (“akamushi” means larval mite in Japan and “tsutsugamushi” means river valley)

globose or round body and striae of skin are interrupted by scales and spinose areas; Pruritus and bald patches on head and neck with marked thickening of the skin

Inflammation with exudate that hardens on the surface and displaces the scales; this is accompanied by keratinization which renders the scales “powdery” in appearance

Do not burrow into the skin and are parasitic in its surface layers causing the formation of a thick, heavy scab rather than a thickened skin

Tongue shape; convex dorsally and flat ventrally; Signs include sneezing, coughing, dyspnea, snoring, ribbing its nose with forefeet, often blood stained nasal discharge and restlessness

Page 17: parasitology species

Anchor parasites of freshwater fishes; the head (cephalic horn) is buried in host’s tissue; Destroy scales and cause ulcer at the site of penetration leading to attack of other infections (viral, bacterial, fungal)
