Babesia canis is a parasite that infects red blood cells and can lead to anemia. [1] This is a species that falls under the overarching genus Babesia.It is transmitted by the brown dog tick (Rhipicephalus sanguineus) and is one of the most common piroplasm infections. [2]
Babesiosis or piroplasmosis is a malaria-like parasitic disease caused by infection with a eukaryotic parasite in the order Piroplasmida, typically a Babesia or Theileria, in the phylum Apicomplexa. [2] Human babesiosis transmission via tick bite is most common in the Northeastern and Midwestern United States and parts of Europe, and sporadic ...
Babesia bovis is an Apicomplexan single-celled parasite of cattle which occasionally infects humans. The disease it and other members of the genus Babesia cause is a hemolytic anemia known as babesiosis and colloquially called Texas cattle fever, redwater or piroplasmosis.
Babesiosis* is spread by members of the family Ixodidae, or hard ticks. The two species of the genus Babesia that affect dogs are B. canis and B. gibsoni. Babesiosis can cause hemolytic anemia in dogs. [29] Neosporosis* is caused by Neospora caninum [30] Protothecosis in dogs is caused by a mutant form of green algae and is usually disseminated.

Babesia divergens is an intraerythrocytic parasite, transmitted by the tick Ixodes ricinus. [1] It is the most common cause of human babesiosis. [2] It is the main agent of bovine babesiosis, or "redwater fever", in Europe.
[1] [2] Humans are accidental hosts of Babesia in general, but B. microti is an important transfusion-transmitted infectious organism in humans. Between 2010 and 2014, it caused four out of 15 (27%) fatalities associated with transfusion-transmitted microbial infections reported to the US FDA (the highest of any single organism). [ 3 ]
