The type species is Haematoxenus veliferus.
History
This genus was described by Uilenberg in 1964.[1]
Description
The species in this genus are transmitted by ticks. The species appear to non pathogenic to the hosts.
The genus has been found in Chad, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Tanzania and Uganda.
Haematoxenus separatus infects sheep and is transmitted by the tick Rhipicephalus evertsi.
Haematocenus veliferus infects cattle and the African buffalo and is spread by the tick Amblyomma variegatum.
gollark: According to Wikipedia, which I just checked, which makes me an expert,> Gaussian optics is a technique in geometrical optics that describes the behaviour of light rays in optical systems by using the paraxial approximation, in which only rays which make small angles with the optical axis of the system are considered. In this approximation, trigonometric functions can be expressed as linear functions of the angles. Gaussian optics applies to systems in which all the optical surfaces are either flat or are portions of a sphere. In this case, simple explicit formulae can be given for parameters of an imaging system such as focal length, magnification and brightness, in terms of the geometrical shapes and material properties of the constituent elements.
gollark: Fearsome.
gollark: Is this some kind of accursed statistics thing?
gollark: Yes.
