Novel Vector of Scrub Typhus in Sub-Antarctic Chile: Evidence From Human Exposure
(2021)
The exposure of a research team to chigger mites in southern Chile allowed the first identification of a trombiculid species as vector and reservoir of scrub typhus outside the tsutsugamushi triangle, providing unique ...

Identification of trombiculid mites (Acari: Trombiculidae) on rodents from Chiloe´ Island and molecular evidence of infection with Orientia species
(2020)
Background
Scrub typhus is an emerging vector-borne zoonosis, caused by Orientia spp. and transmitted by larvae of trombiculid mites, called chiggers. It mainly occurs within a region of the Asia-Pacific called the ...
