Based on review of the literature from more than five decades, 62 species of both hard and soft tick have been discovered on the Southern Cone of America. Tick genera observed and recorded include Amblyomma, Dermacentor, Haemaphysalis, Ixodes, and Rhipicephalus. Key Features: Presents a comprehensive discussion that can be used to study identification and biology of tick species on hosts endemic to Argentina, Chile, Paraguay and Uruguay); Provides pictorial keys that can be used to further identify species; Facilitates prevention and control of tick-borne diseases in tropical region Helps in the diagnoses of tick borne diseases. -- Provided by publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Print version record Subject Ticks -- Southern Cone of South America Ticks -- Nomenclature SCIENCE -- Life Sciences -- Zoology -- General.
