Abstract:
Trombiculid “chigger” mites (Acari) are ectoparasites that feed blood on rodents and another animals. A crosssectional survey was conducted in 7 ecosystems of southern Vietnam from 2015 to 2016. Chigger mites were identified with morphological characteristics and assayed by polymerase chain reaction for detection of rickettsiaceae. Overall chigger infestation among rodents was 23.38%. The chigger index among infested rodents was 19.37 and a mean abundance of 4.61. A total of 2,770 chigger mites were identified belonging to 6 species, 3 genera, and 1 family, and pooled into 141 pools (10-20 chi

Chigger mites are the exclusive vector of scrub typhus. Based on field investigations of 91 survey sites in 5 provincial regions of Southwest China, this paper reported variations of chigger infestation on the oriental house rat (Rattus tanezumi) along various environmental gradients. A total of 149 chigger species were identified from 2919 R. tanezumi in the 5 provincial regions, and Leptotrombidium deliense (a major vector of scrub typhus in China) was the first dominant chigger species, followed by Ascoschoengastia indica and Walchia ewingi.

Chigger mites (Acari) are common ectoparasites on rodents, and they are the exclusive vector of scrub typhus. South China field mouse (Apodemus draco) and Lantsang field mouse (A. ilex) are two sibling rodent species. Based on field investigations in southwest China (2001–2015), this paper compared the infestation of these two mouse species with chiggers. Of 42 chigger species identified from two mouse species, 36 were found on A. draco, 11 on A. ilex and 5 common species on both mice.

They are regarded as temporary parasites with only the larval stage or “chigger” being parasitic. The present study investigated the diversity, ecology and distribution of chiggers associated with small mammal hosts (rodents and insectivores) across SA, with a focus on the Cape Floristic Region (CFR).

Abstract:
Chiggers are the tiny six-legged larval stage of mites in the family Trombiculidae. These mites, particularly the genus Leptotrombidium, act as important vectors of Orientia tsutsugamushi, the causative agent of scrub typhus disease in the Asia-Pacific region (including Thailand). Although the medical impact of these mites has been recognized in the country due to the increasing incidence of the disease in humans, knowledge of the ecology and epidemiological role of these mites is still very limited to date. A systematic review of mite-associated bacteria was conducted from 193 publications (1

Brazil has 58 species of chigger mites parasitizing different animal groups. Of these, only 6 species were reported for birds, being 1 of Apolonia, 2 of Eutrombicula, 1 of Neoschoengastia and 2 of Parasecia. The larvae of chiggers cause deep lesions and cutaneous reactions in the host, and are often cited as vectors of pathogens. In the United States, public health departments have come across the need for cataloging and knowledge of the biology of these mites as potential vectors of Rickettsia spp. In Brazil, the first cases of Brazilian Macular Fever (BMF) diagnosed in São Paulo were associa

Abstract:
Abstract The presence of tsutsugamushi disease and its association with chigger bites has been recognized by some of the native populations of Japan and China for centuries. The term ‘akamushi’, the origin of the Japanese name for this rickettsiosis, means ‘red chigger’. Rural residents of these countries often knew that the best way to avoid being infected was to avoid areas infested by these arthropods (Weiss 1981; Walker 1991). Early Chinese and Japanese investigators suspected that the illness was related to small mites.

All three pathogens typically cause an acute illness with skin rash, headache, myalgias, fever, and chills. Epidemic typhus may relapse after apparent recovery, even 30 years or more after primary infection, resulting in an illness known as Brill-Zinsser disease.
