Immature argasid ticks: diagnosis and keys for Neotropical region [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2013 Many argasid tick species are known only through their larval descriptions, in which the chaetotaxy, together with other external morphological characteristics, has been used to separate genera and species. However, the illustrations of these features are based on optical microscopy alone and many of these features are not clearly defined.
