Anaplasmosis, babesiosis and theileriosis are the major tick-borne diseases in cattle (TBDs). TBDs are widespread in tropical and temperate regions and are responsible for important economic losses in those areas. In this last part of the review on TBDs of cattle we report the translation of a work of the authors about an epidemiological investigation conducted on 1,500 cattle in three regions of southern Italy in order to assess the presence and prevalence of various pathogens responsible for these diseases and an appendix with additional data on the detection of Theileria bicornis, Theileria sp. Buffalo, Babesia rossi and Ehrlichia spp. Omatjenne, never reported before in Italy.
