Ticks in the genus Rhipicephalus include many important vectors of
animal and human pathogens, but many species are notoriously
difficult to identify, particularly as immature stages. This
reference volume provides identification keys for adult ticks from
the Afrotropical regions and elsewhere. For the nymphs and larvae,
unique plates have been compiled in which line drawings of the
capitula of similar species are grouped together to facilitate
identification. Brief well-illustrated descriptions of the known
stages of every species are given, plus information on their hosts,
distribution, and disease relationships. Tables providing data on
host/parasite relationships and disease transmission are also
included, making this the definitive reference source on this group
for all those interested in acarology, veterinary or medical
parasitology and entomology for many years to come.
