Abstract
The tick, Rhipicephalus appendiculatus, has been the object of considerable interest in Africa, because it is the vector of several protozoal and viral infections of cattle, sheep, goats and man. Its major importance is as the principal vector of Theileria parva, the causal agent of East Coast Fever of cattle.
