Abstract：
Ticks are ectoparasite vectors of pathogens affecting human and animal health worldwide. Rational integration of different control interventions including plant-derived repellents and acaricides, management of natural predators, and vaccines is required for innovative approaches to reduce the risks associated with ticks and tick-borne diseases. How tick populations are naturally controlled is always a question. Tick interactions with other arthropods including predators evolved from ancient times. In this study, Cretaceous (ca. 100 Mya) Burmese amber inclusions were identified as probably related to Compluriscutula vetulum (Acari: Ixodida: Ixodidae) tick larvae and spider silk. As illustrated in this study, ancient interactions between ticks and spiders may support arthropod predatory behavior as a natural control intervention. Rational integrative management of different tick control interventions including natural predators under a One Health perspective will contribute to effectively and sustainably reducing the risks associated with ticks and tick-borne diseases.
摘要：
蜱是影响全球人类和动物健康的病原体的外寄生虫载体。合理整合不同的控制干预措施，包括植物源性驱避剂和杀螨剂，自然捕食者的管理，创新方法需要疫苗，以减少与蜱和蜱传播疾病相关的风险。如何自然控制蜱种群始终是一个问题。Tick与其他节肢动物（包括捕食者）的相互作用从远古时代演变而来。在这项研究中,白垩纪（约。100Mya）缅甸琥珀内含物被鉴定为可能与Compluriscutulavetulum（Acari：Ixodida：Ixodidae）tick幼虫和蜘蛛丝有关。如这项研究所示，壁虱和蜘蛛之间的古老相互作用可能支持节肢动物的捕食行为作为自然控制干预。在“一个健康”的观点下，对包括自然捕食者在内的不同蜱控制干预措施进行合理的综合管理将有助于有效和可持续地降低与蜱和蜱传播疾病相关的风险。
