TICKS (IXODOIDEA)

Two kinds of ticks were found. One adult specimen of _Ixodes sculptus_

Neumann was clinging to the head of a vole, just in front of its eye.

This species of tick was taken also from the thirteen-lined ground

squirrel (_Citellus tridecimlineatus_) at Lawrence. One nymph of

_Dermacentor variabilis_ (Say) was found attached to the scapular region

of a prairie vole. Both of these specimens were taken in June.
