These individuals can be exposed to parasitism by the tick\n                    <jats:italic>Ixodes uriae<\/jats:italic>\n                    , but little is known about the circulation of pathogens carried by this ectoparasite, including Lyme disease\n                    <jats:italic>Borrelia<\/jats:italic>\n                    .

Common guillemots showed higher seroprevalence (77.1%\u00b15.9) than black-legged kittiwakes (18.6%\u00b16.7) and Atlantic puffins (22.6%\u00b16.3).
