Lanjan Virus, a New Agent isolated from Dermacentor auratus in Malaya
Abstract
DURING routine animal collections at Bukit Lanjan in the Sungai Buloh Forest Reserve about 7 miles west of Kuala Lumpur, ticks were collected off rodents. The reserve is small and is surrounded by young and old secondary growth in which much of the trapping was done by local aborigines. Two strains of virus were obtained, TP-94 and TP-123.
