  abstract = {{T}he molecular identification of arboviruses in {W}est {A}frica is of particular interest, due to their zoonotic potential in a population living in close contact with livestock, and in a region where the livestock migration across borders raises the risk of diseases infection and dissemination. {T}he aim of the study was the screening of potential circulating arboviruses and the assessment of their zoonotic implications. {T}herefore, ticks were collected on cattle located in three provinces of eastern {B}urkina {F}aso. {T}ick pools were tested using a panel of genus-specific real-time assays targeting conserved regions of parapoxvirus, orthopoxvirus, flavivirus and phlebovirus. {O}n the 26 farms visited, a total of 663 ticks were collected. {F}our genera and six tick species were morphologically identified, with {A}mblyomma variegatum and {H}yalomma spp. being the most represented species. {N}o arboviruses were found. {H}owever, this study highlights the presence of pseudocowpox virus (8.2%) and bovine papular stomatitis virus (5.8%) among the positive tick pools. {BPSV} positive ticks were found in herds sharing water and pastures resources and with a history of seasonal transhumance. {T}herefore, common grazing and the seasonal transhumance are likely to support the transmission of the virus. {T}his could have important health and economic impacts, especially regarding transboundary cattle movements.},
