ARTHROPOD SPECIES COMPOSITION OF COMMONLY DISEASE TRANSMISSION WHICH PARASITISED ON RAISING ANIMALS IN THE SOUTH REGION, VIETNAM IN 2016

The study was conducted at 8 sites which were representative of geographics, habitats and socio - economics of the South region - Lamdong province from 2015 - 2017 by surveys, sample collection in the field and tests in laboratory. The aim of the study was: to determine the species composition and distribution of ticks parasitized on raising animal (dogs, cats, birds, cows, pigs) and to detect ticks of rickettsia infection wich parasitized on raising animal. The results showed that: Collected 5,293 ticks individuals including 4 species, 3 genus, 1 family. Among them, Rhipicephalus was 2 species of Rhipicephalus (Rh.) haemaphysaloides and Rhipicephalus (Rh.) sanguineus, Boophilus was 1 species of Boophilus microplus and Ixodes was 1 species of Ixodes (I.) granulatus. A total of 293 ticks samples (1,460 individual) were tested by PCR. The overall, common Rickettsia spp. infection rate was 1.02% (3/293 samples). All these 3 tick samples are parasitized on domesticated dogs (Canis familiaris). In particular, the Rickettsia spp. infection rate in tick species of Rh (Rh.) sanguineus was 1.71% (3/175 samples). Don’t detected pathogen of Orientia tsutsugamushi in ticks. Tinhbien district (Angiang 2015) and Longthanh district (Dongnai 2015, 2016) Where have tick of Rickettsia spp. infection.
