A dorsal view illustration of an adult male blacklegged tick shows the hard-bodied ectoparasite with eight legs, a dark scutum covering the dorsum, and an anterior capitulum on the idiosoma. In taxonomy, it depicts Ixodes scapularis (I. scapularis), an arachnid within the family Ixodidae. Relevant to entomology and parasitology, this organism functions as a hematophagous vector transmitting Lyme disease (LD) caused by Borrelia burgdorferi (B. burgdorferi). The type is a whole organism; location shown is the dorsal surface morphology.
