Abstract
The
abundance and activity of ectoparasites and its hosts are affected
by various abiotic factors, such as climate and other organisms
(predators, pathogens and competitors) presenting thus multiples
forms of association (obligate to facultative, permanent to
intermittent and superficial to subcutaneous) developed during
long co-evolving processes. Ticks are ectoparasites widespread
globally and its eco epidemiology are closely related to the
environmental conditions. They are obligatory hematophagous
ectoparasites and responsible as vectors or reservoirs at the
transmission of pathogenic fungi, protozoa, viruses, rickettsia
and others bacteria during their feeding process on the hosts.
Ticks constitute the second vector group that transmit the major
number of pathogens to humans and play a role primary for animals
in the process of diseases transmission. Many studies on
bioecology of ticks, considering the information related to their
population dynamics, to the host and the environment, comes
possible the application and efficiency of tick control measures
in the prevention programs of vector-borne diseases. In this
review were considered some taxonomic, morphological,
epidemiological and clinical fundamental aspects related to the
tick-borne infections that affect human and animal populations.
Keywords: acarology, argasidae,
epidemiology, health public, ixodidae, parasitology veterinary,
zoonosis.
