VECTORS OF THEILERIA HIRCI IN SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST OF IRAN
by Z. Mazlum Acarology Laboratory, Parasitology Department, Razi Institute, Hessarak, Karadj, Iran Present address : Elanco International, P. O. Box 13/1365, Teheran, Iran.
Transmission to Ovins and Caprins of malignant theileriasis due to Thieileria hirci (= T. ovis) was referred to Rhipicephalus bursa in Serbia, Greece, and in the north and west of Iran.
Yet, this tick has never been found in the south and southeast of Iran, and nevertheless thousands of animals died during theileriasis epidemics.
According to the author, some ticks belonging to genus Hyalomma could be incriminated in the transmission.
Résumé
La transmission de la theilériose maligne des ovins et des caprins due à Theileria hirci (= T. ovis) a été attribuée à Rhipicephalus bursa en Serbie, en Grèce et dans le Nord et l’Ouest de l’Iran. Par contre, cette tique n’a pas été trouvée dans le Sud et le Sud-Est de l’Iran où des épidémies de theilériose ont tué plusieurs milliers d’animaux. D’après les recherches de l’auteur, certaines tiques du genre Hyalomma pourraient être incriminées dans cette transmission.
