Coloured SEM of Lyme disease tick mouthparts
Tick mouthparts. Coloured Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM) showing the mouthparts of the Lyme disease tick nymph, Ixodes ricinus. Two of the tick's eight legs are visible (at top right and lower left). Between the legs, the barbed hypostome of the tick can be seen above the longer serrated drilling tool. The drill penetrates the skin of the host and the hypostome anchors the tick and sucks the host blood. Ixodes ricinus is a blood-sucking parasitic mite and the principal vector of Lyme disease in Europe. It causes Lyme disease by transmitting the bacteria Borrelia burgdoferi during feeding. Lyme disease results in fever and inflammation of joints. Magnification: x150 at 6x6cm size.
