Biogeography of tick-borne Bhanja virus (Bunyaviridae) in Europe
Original language description
This generally neglected arbovirus (BHAV), pathogenic for ruminants and humans, is transmitted by metastriate ticks of the genera Haemaphysalis, Dermacentor, Hyalomma, Rhipicephalus, Boophilus and Amblyomma. Its geographic range covers south and centralAsia, Africa, and southern (partially also central) Europe. Comparative biogeographic study of eight known natural foci of BHAV infections in Europe (Italy, Croatia, Bulgaria, Slovakia) has revealed their common features: (1) submediterranean climatic pattern (or microclimatically similar limestone karst areas in central Europe), (2) xerothermic woodland-grassland ecosystem with pastoral areas, (3) presence of at least one of the tick species Haemaphysalis punctata, Dermacentor marginatus, Rhipicephalusbursa, Hyalomma marginatum, and (4) presence of 60% of the 180 BHAV bioindicator (157 plant, 4 tick, 19 vertebrate) species. On that basis, additional European regions were predicted where BHAV might occur.
