The Castor Bean Tick (Ixodes ricinus) Model (005-1000525) is an enlarged and highly detailed representation of one of the most common parasitic arachnids in Europe. This scientifically accurate model highlights the external anatomy of the tick, including its mouthparts, legs, and body segmentation, allowing for close examination of features that are nearly invisible to the naked eye.
Ixodes ricinus is a medically significant species known for transmitting diseases such as Lyme disease and tick-borne encephalitis. This model is ideal for use in biology classrooms, parasitology studies, veterinary training, and public health education, providing students and professionals with an essential tool for studying tick morphology and understanding their role in disease transmission.
Durable and easy to handle, the Castor Bean Tick Model makes an excellent addition to any zoology, entomology, or medical teaching collection.
