The importance of the tortoise tick Hyalomma aegyptium as a carrier of bacterial agents on a wide range by Matej Kautman, Branka Bilbija, Markéta Nováková, Emil Tkadlec, Ivo Papoušek, Peter Mikulíček, David Jandzik, Hossein Javanbakht, Ghoulem Tiar, Pavel Široký

“…However, the frequencies of co-infected ticks do not indicate the presence of antagonistic or synergistic facilitative interactions between the agents. According to our data, we could expect that the eco-epidemiological importance of H. aegyptium does not stem from their tortoise hosts but rather from the low host specificity of its larvae and nymphs, feeding on a wider spectrum of reptilian, avian, and mammalian hosts.…”
