“…These results largely contrast to all other regions of Brazil that have been investigated, where recent studies have indicated, by molecular methods, that a considerable proportion of the dogs was infected by E. canis, A. platys, B. vogeli, and/or H. canis (RAMOS et al, 2010;SPOLIDORIO et al, 2011;VIEIRA et al, 2011;COSTA-JÚNIOR et al, 2012;SILVA et al, 2012;DEMONER et al, 2013). Indeed, these results are directly related to the absence of infestations by R. sanguineus s.l.…”

“…Low exposure to wild ticks in the present study would explain the absence of Hepatozoon-infected dogs, because this protozoan has been associated with Amblyomma spp. ticks in Brazil (FORLANO et al, 2007;DEMONER et al, 2013).…”

“…R. sanguineus is considered to be the main H. canis vector in the Old World (BANETH et al, 2007), and its presence on dogs has been associated with pathogen infection (SPOLIDORIO et al, 2009). However, until now, there is no report of R. sanguineus naturally or experimentally infected with H. canis in Brazil (FORLANO et al, 2005;SPOLIDORIO et al, 2009;DEMONER et al, 2013). These negative results could be related to the different susceptibilities of R. sanguineus populations to H. canis because it has been shown that the taxon R. sanguineus is represented by at least two different species in Latin America (MORAES-FILHO et al, 2011).…”

“…closed related to Hepatozoon americanum has also been molecularly detected in wild canids (CRIADO-FORNELIO et al, 2006;ANDRÉ et al, 2010). R. sanguineus, Amblyomma ovale and Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus are suspected vectors of H. canis in Brazil (FORLANO et al, 2005;MIRANDA et al, 2011;DEMONER et al, 2013).…”
