We herein report results of a survey led around the index case in an Atlantic rainforest reserve in Peruibe municipality, southeastern Brazil. A<jats:italic>Rickettsia parkeri-<\/jats:italic>like agent (<jats:italic>Rickettsia<\/jats:italic>sp. Atlantic rainforest genotype) and<jats:italic>Ricketsia bellii<\/jats:italic>were isolated from adult<jats:italic>Amblyomma ovale<\/jats:italic>ticks collected from dogs. Molecular evidence of infection with strain Atlantic rainforest was obtained for 30 (12\u00b79%) of 232<jats:italic>A. ovale<\/jats:italic>adult ticks collected from dogs. As many as 88\u00b76% of the 35 examined dogs had anti-<jats:italic>Rickettsia<\/jats:italic>antibodies, with endpoint titres at their highest to<jats:italic>R. parkeri<\/jats:italic>. High correlation among antibody titres in dogs,<jats:italic>A. ovale<\/jats:italic>infestations, and access to rainforest was observed.<jats:italic>Amblyomma ovale<\/jats:italic>subadults were found predominantly on a rodent species (<jats:italic>Euryoryzomys russatus<\/jats:italic>). From 17<jats:italic>E. russatus<\/jats:italic>tested, 6 (35\u00b73%) displayed anti-<jats:italic>Rickettsia<\/jats:italic>antibodies, with endpoint titres highest to<jats:italic>R. parkeri<\/jats:italic>. It is concluded that Atlantic rainforest genotype circulates in this Atlantic rainforest area at relatively high levels. Dogs get infected when bitten by<jats:italic>A. ovale<\/jats:italic>ticks in the forest, and carry infected ticks to households. The role of<jats:italic>E. russatus<\/jats:italic>as an amplifier host of<jats:italic>Rickettsia<\/jats:italic>to<jats:italic>A. ovale<\/jats:italic>ticks deserves investigation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0031182012002065","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,1,30]],"date-time":"2013-01-30T14:09:53Z","timestamp":1359554993000},"page":"719-728","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":136,"title":["<i>In vitro<\/i>isolation from<i>Amblyomma ovale<\/i>(Acari: Ixodidae) and ecological aspects of the Atlantic rainforest<i>Rickettsia<\/i>, the causative agent of a novel spotted fever rickettsiosis in Brazil"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"140","author":[{"given":"M.
