1996 journal article

Reservoir Competence of the Southeastern Five-Lined Skink (Eumeces inexpectatus) and the Green Anole (Anolis carolinensis) for Borrelia burgdorferi

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 54(1), 92–97.

By: M. Levin n, S. Yang, C. Apperson*, J. Levine* & P. Howard*

MeSH headings : Animals; Borrelia burgdorferi Group / isolation & purification; Disease Reservoirs; Lizards / microbiology; Rabbits; Ticks / microbiology
TL;DR: The ability of the lizards to sustain a Borrelia infection and infect attached ticks suggests that they may play a role in the maintenance of spirochete transmission. (via Semantic Scholar)
