Abstract
A human case of the tick bite on the back of 36-year-old man was found in September 1995. On admission he complained of itching sensation and pain at the site. The removed tick was identified morphologically as Ixodes nipponensis.
Fig. 2 A schematic drawing of left coxae of the tick. Internal spur (arrow) of first coxa is longer and stronger than the external spur (asterisk). The tip of the internal spur does not overlay on the edge of coxa II because the coxa I moved forward.
