Novel Ehrlichia Strain Infecting Cattle Tick Amblyomma neumanni, Argentina, 2018.

ABSTRACT: In 2018, we detected a novel Ehrlichia strain infecting Amblyomma neumanni ticks in Argentina. The novel strain is phylogenetically related to the ruminant pathogen E. ruminantium and represents a potential risk for veterinary and public health because A. neumanni ticks parasitize domestic and wild ruminants and bite humans.
