It’s not every day you see a new tick! Dr. Susan Little’s research group at Oklahoma State University’s Center for Veterinary Health Sciences recently identified a nymphal longhorned tick or bush tick, Haemaphysalis longicornis.

The OSU lab confirmed the morphologic identification by sequencing and reported the finding to the United States Department of Agriculture.
