The morphological ontogeny of Achipteria punctata (Nicolet, 1855) is redescribed and illustrated. The adult of this species has genu IV approximately as long as tibia IV, seta bv'' on femur II is as long as seta d, with short seta l' on femur III and smooth claws of all legs. The juveniles of A. punctata are stocky, with most prodorsal setae short and smooth, except for slightly longer and barbed seta ro, and gentle reticulation of cuticle between the bothridia and in the posterior part of prodorsum. In the larva, most gastronotal setae are short, thick and barbed, except for smooth c2, c3 and h2; in the nymphs the gastronotal setae are short, thin and finely barbed. In the juveniles of A. punctata, setae of l-series on legs are not thickened.
重新描述并图示了点斑阿氏蜱（Nicolet，1855）的形态发育过程。该物种成虫的第IV膝节长度约等于第IV胫节，第II股节上的bv''毛与d毛长度相等，第III股节上有短的l'毛，所有腿的爪均光滑。点斑阿氏蜱的若虫体型矮胖，除了稍长且有倒刺的ro毛外，大多数前背板毛短且光滑，在两盘之间和前背板后部的表皮有平缓的网纹。在幼虫中，除了光滑的c2、c3和h2毛外，大多数腹背板毛短、粗且有倒刺；在若虫中，腹背板毛短、细且有细微的倒刺。在点斑阿氏蜱的若虫中，腿上的l系列毛不增粗。
