FIGURE 8. Sampling of ticks from hosts. (A) Sampling ticks from flank of steer in a squeeze crush. (B) Sampling ticks at udder and groin of a heifer. (C) Sampling ticks on a cast calf. (D) Typical infestation of Rhipicephalus decoloratus (the blue tick) adults on belly of a calf. (E) Typical infestation of Rhipicephalus appendiculatus (the brown ear tick) on ear of a calf. (F) Infestation of Amblyomma variegatum (the tropical bont tick) on dewlap of a steer. [These species of ticks do not occur in Australia but are nonetheless instructive about the biology of the Australian ticks.]
