adult capitulum
type: Class
subclass of: organism subdivision
tree view: organism subdivision
definition: Anterior region of the body that contains the palps, chelicerae and hypostome. Capable of dorsal to ventral flexing motion. Homologous with the gnathosoma of mites. The capitulum articulates with the body via a cavity, the camerostome. The capitulum is located at the anterior end of the body in ixodid ticks and the larvae of many argasid ticks. It is located ventrally or subterminal, obscured by an overhang of the anterior end of the body.

annotated property: definition
annotated target: Paired glands comprised of clusters of white multicellular acini (lobes) arranged around a common salivary duct. The salivary glands are located in the antero-lateral regions of the body. The salivary glands are among the largest glands in the body. The salivary glands are comprised of two types of acini (alveoli), agranular acini (type I acaini) located near the anterior end of the gland and up to three types of granular acini (types II, III and IV), located in the middle and posterior regions of the gland. Agranular acini open directly into the main salivary duct. The granular acini open into intralobular ducts that ramify among the acini, eventually joining the main salivary duct.

Comprised of three major cell types, D, E and F cells. According to Jaworski et al (1992), the cement compoundsused to bind the tick mouthparts to the host skin are elaborated in the D and E cells of these acini. Bishop et al (2002) report acement protein from the type E cells of the type III acini in Rhipicephalus appendiculatus. The F cell is transformed during bloodfeeding by membrane infolding to form an enormous labyrinthe system for extracting water and salts from the hemolymph and secreting them into the salivary ducts for excretion back into the host. The type III acini are the primary sites for development of sporozoites of Theileria parva, the agent of East Coast Fever.

definition: Valve located at the junction of the esophagus and the antero-ventral region of the stomach portion of the midgut. The proventriculus is surrounded by several layers of smooth muscle fibers. The proventriculus opens when the pharynx contracts, allowing ingested blood to enter the midgut, but closes when the pharynx dilates. The latter is believed to prevent regurgitation of blood from the midgut back into the host. However, this remains a controversial issue since some authors (e.g., Burgdorfer et al. 1989) have argued that regurgitation can occur while others (Riberio et al. 1987) consider it unlikely. Connat (1991, Parasitol. Res. 77: 452 -454) showed compelling evidence of regurgitation using tritiated ecdysteroids). Thus, it appears that there is good evidence that it can occur in argasid ticks. Whether it can also occur in ixodid ticks is uncertain.

adult granulocyte type II
type: Class
subclass of: adult hemocyte
tree view: adult hemocyte
definition: Type II granulocytes are hemocytes that are easily recognized by the presence of a single type of electron dense, homogenous granules. In addition to their role in phagocytosis, these cells also serve to encapsulate foreign material too large to be ingested. They are believed to be the primary cell that degranulates and forms around bacterial cell clusters or inanimate objects. Proteases have been found localized in the granules of granulocytes in Ornithodoros moubata (Inoue et al. 2001). Whereas gram positive bacteria may be destroyed by defensins secreted from granulocytes (Johns et al. 2000), gram negative bacteria are immobilized in clusters by secretion of lectin-like Dorin-M (Kovar et al. 2000) and surrounded by hemocytes, a non-melanotic encapsulation process known as nodulation (Ceraul et al. 2002).

definition: A depression on the dorsal surface of the tarsus of leg I located distal to the posterior capsule. The anterior pit is usuallysurrounded by a prominent ridge. In most ixodid ticks, the anterior pit contains 6 or 7 setiform sensilla, including one or moremultiporose sensilla serving as olfactosensilla, tip pore that serve as gustatory sensilla and still others that are grooved fine andno-pore sensilla that are probably mechanosensilla. At least one of the tip pore setae is a multifunctional sensilla. In Rhipicephalus (= Boophilus) microplus, 3 of the anterior pit sensilla are grooved double-walled porous sensilla with the pores in the grooves while other lackpores. In argasid ticks, the anterior pit typically contains 9 sensilla, although the number is variable among the species.

Axiom
annotated source: adult Haller's organ anterior pit
annotated property: definition
annotated target: A depression on the dorsal surface of the tarsus of leg I located distal to the posterior capsule. The anterior pit is usuallysurrounded by a prominent ridge. In most ixodid ticks, the anterior pit contains 6 or 7 setiform sensilla, including one or moremultiporose sensilla serving as olfactosensilla, tip pore that serve as gustatory sensilla and still others that are grooved fine andno-pore sensilla that are probably mechanosensilla. At least one of the tip pore setae is a multifunctional sensilla. In Rhipicephalus (= Boophilus) microplus, 3 of the anterior pit sensilla are grooved double-walled porous sensilla with the pores in the grooves while other lackpores. In argasid ticks, the anterior pit typically contains 9 sensilla, although the number is variable among the species. Several multiporose olfactosensilla are recognized, along with grooved sensilla and no-pore mechanosensory setae.

definition: A hair like process that extends from the cuticle to the exterior. The seta is the most common type of sensillum. The seta isinserted into a socket, a depression in the cuticle surrounded by a slight ridge. The interior of the seta is hollow and connected directly to a duct that extends through the cuticle to the epidermis. Several neurons embedded in the epidermis innervate the setiform sensillum, sending dendrites into the shaft of the seta. Axons from the neuron cell bodies extend into the interior of the body and communicate via nerves to the synganglion. Most setae are simple, without pores and serve as mechanosensilla and are innervated by mechanosensory neurons. Specialized setae have either single pores at the tip (gustatory sensilla), pores all over the sensilla (olfactosensilla) or pores in ridges along the side walls or with grooves that lack pores. These latter sensilla are believed to function as hygrosensilla or thermosensilla or both.

definition: The fat body consists of highly dispersed strands of cells clinging to the atrial chamber, tracheal trunks and trachea and, to a limited extent, other internal organs. The fat body is the site of synthesis for vitellogenin, the yolk protein, of conversion o fecdysone into 20-hydroxyecdysone (the molting hormone and other hormonal functions) and probably other functions. It is also believedto be site for the production of antimicrobial proteins, e.g., defensin. The fat body subdivided into central region, surrounding thealimentary canal and a peripheral region, along the tracheal trunks and tracheae. The fat body consists of two types of cells,trophocytes and nephrocytes.

adult ovary stage III oocyte
type: Class
subclass of: cell
subclass of: Restriction
  on property: part_of
  some values from: adult ovary
tree view: adult ovary
tree view: cell
part of: adult ovary
definition: Stage III oocytes constitute the developmental stage of the oocytes when they first begin to acquire yolk. Following mating,high levels of ecdysteroid (20-hydroxyecdysone) stimulate vitellogenin production in the fat body and, simultaneously, upregulation of the vitellogenin receptors in the oocytes (Thompson et al. 2007; Mitchell et al. 2007). As a result, the enlarging oocytes now begin to acquire yolk granules and begin to turn brown in color (vitellogenin is a lipoglycoheme protein). The stage III oocytes are larger than the stage I or stage II oocytes and are easily distinguished by their brown color.

definition: The vestibular vagina is the elongated, rounded tube that connects the muscular cervical vagina to the female genital pore. In ixodid ticks, it is approximately 320 - 360 microns long. It is somewhat shorter in argasid ticks. The vestibular vagina is lined with cuticle folded into trabeculae thereby forming a thick layer about 15 - 20 microns across. A thin layer of epithelial cellssurrounds the cuticular lining. In ixodid. Tthe vestibular vagina is surrounded by a multilobed glandular epithelium, the lobular accessory gland. This gland is absent in argasid ticks. A pair of tubular accessory glands are located at the junction ofthe vestibular vagina with the cervical vagina and empty into the vagina at this juncture. In ixodid ticks, the vestibular vaginaenlarges greatly during oviposition, the walls thin and stretch and the tube functions as a primitive ovipositor, assisting in propelling the egg from the vagina out through the genital pore.

definition: The lobular accessory gland (LAG) is found only in ixodid ticks. The LAG surrounds the vestibular vagina, separated from it by a vestibular sinus (VS). The LAG consists of a bulblous three-lobed gland about 150 microns thick surrounding the vestibular vagina. Numerous ducts permeate the lobes of the gland and fuse with the VS. The secretory cells of the LAG are filled with lipids. Although the function of the LAG is unknown, it is believed to produce a lipid rich secretion that coats the eggs as they pass through the vestibular vagina during oviposition.

subclass of: portion of organism substance
subclass of: Restriction
  on property: part_of
  some values from: adult male reproductive system
tree view: adult male reproductive system
tree view: portion of organism substance
part of: adult male reproductive system
definition: The spermatophore is not a permament part of the male anatomy. Rather it is formed externally from soluble proteins, lipids and other materials in a viscous droplet ejaculated by the male during copulation. These materials coagulate into the ectospermatophore that momentarily encloses the male genital aperture. This is followed quickly by masses of elongated prospermia and seminal fluids that flow into the ectospermatophore, causing it to balloon and turn opaque. Next, a second viscous droplet is introduced which forms the bilobed endospermatophore. This also seals the spermatophore. A single endospermatophore occurs in ixodid ticks, but two endospermatophores commonly occur in argasid ticks. When completed, the entire spermatophore is seized by the male's chelicerae as itemerges from the male genital aperture. Then, using its chelicerae, the male transfers the spermatophore to the female's genital aperture and implants it into the vestibular vagina. Saliva is secreted to lubricate the female's genital area to facilitate the process. Meanwhile, CO2 generated within the spermatophore creates sufficient pressure to force the masses of elongated prospermia and semen into the endospermatophore (s), which everts, expands and passes out the external spermatophore and into the female's genital tract. The ectospermatophore remains as an empty sac on the external surface of the female, where it soons dries, shrivels and falls off.
