Novel Borrelia species detected in echidna ticks, Bothriocroton concolor, in Australia

14 Jun 2016

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: To date, little has been documented about microorganisms harboured within Australian native ticks or their pathogenic potential. Recently, a Borrelia sp. related to the Relapsing Fever (RF) group was identified in a single tick removed from a wild echidna (Tachyglossus aculeatus). The present study investigated the presence of Borrelia in 97 Bothriocroton concolor ticks parasitizing echidnas in...
