''Ixodes spp.''
''Rhipicephalus spp.''
*Warmer climates
*Causes paralysis in livestock
*Vectors for diseases such as
**''Theileria parva'' which causes [[Theileria|East Coast Fever]]
**''Babesia bigemina'' which affects ruminants, mainly in Africa
**[[Babesia|''Babesia canis'']] and [[Rickettsiales#Canine monocytic ehrlichiosis|''Ehrlichia canis'']] which affects dogs in warmer climates worldwide
''Boophilus spp.''
*Warmer climates
*Vector for ''Babesia spp.''
*Vectors for the bacteria [[Rickettsiales#Bovine anaplasmosis|''Anaplasma'']] which affects cattle
''Amblyomma spp.''
*Warmer climates
*Transmits ''Cowdria ruminatium'' ([[Rickettsiales#Heartwater|heartwater]]) in Africa
*Transmits [[Rickettsiales#Q fever|'Q fever']] and [[Rickettsiales#Rocky Mountain spotted fever|'Rocky Mountain spotted fever']] in southern USA
''Hyalomma spp.''
*Warmer climates
*Old World
*Parasites a wide range of both domestic and wild animals
*Involved in the spread of [[Piroplasmida#Theileria|''Theileria'']] and [[Piroplasmida#Babesia|''Babesia spp.'']]
**E.g. ''H. aegyptium'' is a parasite of tortoises in North Africa which has been spread around the world by the pet trade
