Abstract
During a collection of ticks from vegetation in March 2006, a single adult male Rocky Mountain wood tick, Dermacentor andersoni (Stiles, 1908), was collected that exhibited unique morphological anomalies, including the absence of a leg on the right side of the body. Coxa IV on the right side also was missing in this specimen. Such teratological changes have not been reported previously for D. andersoni.
摘要
2006年3月在从植被上采集蜱虫的过程中，采集到一只成年雄性落基山木蜱（Dermacentor andersoni，斯泰尔斯，1908年），它呈现出独特的形态异常，包括身体右侧缺少一条腿。该标本右侧的第四对基节也缺失。此前尚未有关于安德逊革蜱这种畸形变化的报道。
