title: Isolation of Thogoto virus from ticks in Portugal.
abstract: An agent pathogenic for mice was isolated from Rhipicephalus sanguineus ticks collected from goats from Vila Vicosa , Portugal. The virus was shown serologically to be closely related to or identical with Thogoto virus, which had previously been isolated from ticks over a wide geographic area including Sicily, the African continent, and Iran.
