Eighty-one animals were captured (representing, six orders), and ticks were found on 63 (78%). Tick species identified includes Boophilus microplus (Canestrini), Amblyomma cajennense (F.), Amblyomma parvum Aragao, Amblyomma pseudoconcolor Aragao, Amblyomma scalpturatum Neumann, Amblyomma nodosum Neumann, Amblyomma ovale Koch, and Amblyomma tigrinum Koch. Dragging from grassland yielded negative results compared with the high concentration of ticks that were collected from leaves in the forests. aAcari aBrazil aIxodidae aPantanal aCarrapato aAnimal silvestre aTick aWild animal1 aSZABO, M.
