Ticks are... Tick Species Tick-borne Diseases Acaricide Resistance ... Home FAO Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases Ticks and tick-borne diseases are an economical constraint in the development of the livestock sector, mainly in Africa, the Caribbean and South America. They cause production losses, illness or even death. FAO has been and is involved in field projects and programmes related to tick and tick-borne disease issues. The multi-donor programme for Integrated Tick and Tick-borne Diseases Control in Eastern, Central and Southern Africa (thrird phase: 1993-1997) was one the largest and involved 9 countries. The Caribbean Amblyomma Eradication Programme (CAP) is another big programme, that is still ongoing. Photo by M.Moran:acaricide spraying in Uganda Farmers have long been treating their cattle, sheep and goats with acaricides to protect them from ticks, but many ticks have become resistant to these chemical compounds. FAO envisages to act as a forum of experts and industry to explore alternatives in order to come to an Intergrated Parasite Management approach. Through publications, like the

Berg and Hannah J. Barnard) in collaboration with AECOS , Inc. (Eric B. Guinther, Joann Fisher, and Hilary Maybaum). This project has been supported by a grant from NOAA / U. S. Coral Reef Initiative The HCRIB is an EndNote Plus bibliographic reference data base which provides reference listings of surveys, studies, technical reports, atlases, and the like on subjects ranging from physical oceanography, biology, taxonomy, water quality, ecology, and reef resources for the main Hawaiian Islands. In gathering references for inclusion, the editors have placed particular emphasis on technical reports (essentially unpublished reports) by corporations, consultants, students, organizations, and government agencies for the reason that these types of studies and surveys are most difficult to track through standard bibliographic data bases. Also, far greater numbers of field surveys and site specific observations are available from this "gray" literature than anywhere else. References listed in this database are limited to marine environments found around the main Hawaiian Islands from the shore out to a depth of about 60 feet. A similar data base for Hawai`i fresh and brackish waters is under development (see

There are several taxonomic systems available for identifying Fusarium species. The philosophy used in each taxonomic system is discussed as well as problems encountered in working with Fusarium species in culture. Fusarium species are toxigenic, and the mycotoxins produced by these organisms are often associated with animal and human diseases. The implications for the association of the carcinogens, fumonisins, produced by Fusarium moniliforme and other Fusarium species with human diseases are discussed.

ECOLOGY Arguably the world's most versatile herbivore. Equipped with its unique nasal appendage an all in one grasping, smelling, drinking, squirting, broadcasting tool a big elephant feeds from ground up to 20 feet higher than a giraffe can reach. The trunk can coil around and pull up grass, pick up peas, and tear off tree limbs. Tusks are also tools for prying bark loose, digging pits and even caves in mineral earth to increase salt intake. Rasp like teeth grind up the toughest grasses, reeds, bark, and branches. Some bulls specialize in pushing over big trees. Elephant dung consists largely of fiber that passes undigested through its comparatively small system. To compensate, adults consume and quickly process vast amounts: c. 330 lb/day (150 kg/day). Grass and herbs are mainstays in rainy season when elephants wander widely over the savanna; foliage and other browse are important in dry season when they feed more in forests, near water. Elephant trails that once crisscrossed the continent were the roadways used by human travelers. Many of today's highways are simply widened and paved trails engineered by elephants.

They are found in the tropical regions of Africa and Asia. Pangolins are conspicuous and remarkable because their backs are covered with large, overlapping scales made up of agglutinated hairs. But they are strange in other ways as well. Their tongue is extraordinarily long and muscular, arising from the pelvis and the last pair of ribs deep in the animal's chest. As a result, the tongue and associated muscles are longer than the animal's head and body, allowing the tongue to be extruded to an astonishing degree. Pangolins lack teeth. Instead, the the pyloric part of their stomach is thickened and muscular, with odd keratinous spines projecting into its interior. It usually contains pebbles and seems to be used for "chewing" in much the same way as a bird's gizzard. Pangolins have the ability to close their ears and nostrils as well as eyes, presumably to keep ants out. The skull of pangolins is smoothly conical, lacking the ridges and crests found on most mammalian crania. The

Scorpiones Scorpions are the oldest arachnids for which fossils are known, and they were the first arachnid fossils to be found in Paleozoic strata. The Silurian scorpions appear to have lived in the water, since their fossils have gills, but by the Carboniferous scorpions with such features are no longer found fossils from the Pennsylvanian age Mazon Creek beds have book lungs covered by protective plates, and so were probably land-dwellers. The best scorpion fossils come from the Devonian and the Oligocene; there is a severe lack of fossils known from the intervening period. These earliest scorpiones are considered to be Protoscorpions, since they possess many traits which are plesiomorphic for scorpions. For example, in all scorpions the thick front portion on the abdomen is made up of seven segments, but the number of sternite plates which cover this region varies among the earliest fossils, while all living species have five. All scorpions have an additional five segments after the initial seven, ending in a sharp sting. This sting contains a pair of poison glands which can paralyze prey, usually insects or small rodents , or may deliver a painful sting to incautious persons. Most scorpion stings are merely painful, leading to swelling in the immediate region of the sting, but some scorpions of northern Africa and the American southwest can be deadly. In the US, the deadliest scorpions are to be found in Arizona, where it is a good idea to shake out shoes before putting them on in the morning!

A NEW NEMATODE PARASITE OF MOLE CRICKETS: ITS TAXONOMY, BIOLOGY AND POTENTIAL FOR BIOLOGICAL CONTROL By Khuong B. Nguyen, 1988 DISSERTATION SUMMARY A search for natural enemies of mole crickets in South America revealed a steinernematid nematode parasite of mole crickets which may limit increase of the population. The nematode was brought to the University of Florida to determine its potential as a biological control agent of mole crickets imported accidentally from South America about the turn of the century. Studies have shown that the nematode does not fit currently described species, and it is described herein as Steinernema scapterisci n. sp. This nematode can be distinguished from other species of the genus as follows: female with thick cheilorhabdions, an excretory duct that forms a large doughnut-shaped structure near the base of the esophagus, and an epiptygma. The spicules of the male taper gradually to narrow point, the shaft of the spicules bears a sheath, and the gubernaculum has a long neck, which is bent upward anteriorly. The body length of the juvenile is in the range of that of S. carpocapsae
