A dorsal illustration of an adult male Rhipicephalus microplus (R. microplus), the cattle fever tick, showing the capitulum, oval idiosoma, and eight segmented legs characteristic of Arachnida. In biological hierarchy, this organism is an ectoparasitic arthropod (phylum Arthropoda, class Arachnida). In parasitology and veterinary entomology, it feeds on blood and transmits pathogens causing bovine babesiosis. The species parasitizes cattle (Bos taurus), typically attaching to the skin. The type depicted is an adult male ectoparasite with a hard scutum.
