In the present study, we compared 2 methods for collecting ixodid ticks on the verges of animal trails n a primary Amazon forest area in northern Brazil. (i) Dragging: This method was based on passing a 1-m2 white flannel over the vegetation and checking the flannel for the presence of caught ticks every 5–10 m. (ii) Visual search: This method consisted of looking for questing ticks on the tips of leaves of the vegetation bordering animal trails in the forest. A total of 103 adult ticks belonging to 4 Amblyomma species were collected by the visual search method on 5 collecting dates, while only 44 adult ticks belonging to 3 Amblyomma species were collected by dragging on 5 other collecting dates. These values were statistically different (Mann–Whitney Test, P = 0.0472). On the other hand, dragging was more efficient for subadult ticks, since no larva or nymph was collected by visual search, whereas 18 nymphs and 7 larvae were collected by dragging. The visual search method proved to be suitable for collecting adult ticks in the Amazon forest; however, field studies should include a second method, such as dragging in order to maximize the collection of subadult ticks. Indeed, these 2 methods can be performed by a single investigator at the same time, while he/she walks on an animal trail in the forest. |
