Under a low magnification of 26X, this scanning electron micrographic (SEM) image depicted a dorsal view of an unidentified engorged female tick, which had been extracted from the skin of a pet cat. Note the presence of some of the cat’s fur, along with some of its skin tissue in which the tick’s gnathosoma was still embedded, while it had been obtaining a blood meal from its feline host. Also worthy of note, is the subtle demarcation of the “scutum”, or chitinous “shield” on the tick’s back, signifying that this was, indeed, a female.
