Detection of a rickettsia closely related to Rickettsia aeschlimannii, "Rickettsia heilongjiangensis," Rickettsia sp. strain RpA4, and Ehrlichia muris in ticks collected in Russia and Kazakhstan.

Using PCR, we screened 411 ticks from four genera collected in Russia and Kazakhstan for the presence of rickettsiae and ehrlichiae. In Russia, we detected "Rickettsia heilongjiangensis," Rickettsia sp. strain RpA4, and Ehrlichia muris. In Kazakhstan, we detected Rickettsia sp. strain RpA4 and a rickettsia closely related to Rickettsia aeschlimannii. These agents should be considered in a diffe...

R. helvetica (5), R. slovaca (6), and R. felis (7). The serologic findings indicated antibodies at a higher level to R. aeschlimannii than to other tested species. R. aeschlimannii is phylogenetically distant from R. conorii but is closely related to R. rhipicephali and R. montanensis, which have never been described as human pathogens. This patient appeared to have a typical case of R. conorii...
