A 24-mo study of the laboratory life cycle of the tick Ixodes woodi Bishopp was conducted. No other such study of any species in the subgenus Ixodiopsis Filippova has been reported. Three generations of I. woodi were examined. Larvae and nymphs fed for an average of 4 d; approximately 8-9 d were required for females to engorge. Females laid approximately 900 eggs that required an average of 37.33 d to hatch.
对伍氏硬蜱（Ixodes woodi Bishopp）的实验室生命周期进行了一项为期24个月的研究。在菲利波娃（Filippova）的硬蜱亚属（Ixodiopsis）中，尚未有对任何物种进行过此类研究的报道。对三代伍氏硬蜱进行了检查。幼虫和若虫平均进食4天；雌蜱饱血需要大约8 - 9天。雌蜱产下约900枚卵，平均需要37.33天孵化。
