- Abstract
Eosinophilic dermatitis was observed in skin samples from Jersey cows, sampled in mid‐October in south‐west France. The inflammatory response was considered to be the result of Trombiculidae bites. Clinical signs were assumed to be due partly to self‐trauma and included patchy alopecia with crusted papules; lesions were observed on the jaws, dewlap, perineum and distal limbs. Identified parasites were larvae of Leptotrombidium spp. The lesions had completely self‐resolved by December.
