Caption:

This illustration depicts two views of a Argasid soft tick, a dorsal view on the left, and a ventral view on the right. The dorsal view reveals the absence of a hard scutum, while the ventral view shows how the tick’s capitulum, though anterior, is situated on its ventral surface, and their spiracular plates lie behind their third pair of legs.
