Tropical Animal Health and Production
J A LawrenceG Uilenberg

Abstract

Rhipicephalus zambeziensis was shown experimentally to transmit Theileria parva parva in cattle from nymph to adult and Theileria parva lawrencei, Theileria parva bovis and Theileria taurotragi from larva to nymph and nymph to adult. In a single trial the tick failed to transmit Theileria mutans. The tick is believed to be a vector of T. parva lawrencei in the field in Zimbabwe.
