- Crofton Oct [October] 8, 1939.
Parasites Lipoptena extremely numerous.
I took 201 individuals from the
head + neck of this [male symbol] deer.
Of these 12 deposited puparia
+ 3 fairly well developed larvae.
The puparia are white when
deposited but within 5 or 6
hours turn brown. All were
brown 12 hours after deposition.
3 other females in advanced
gravidity + several in various
less apparent stages present.
Puparia are deposited when
the deer has cooled + the insects
are nearing death. 48 hours
after death of the deer 90-95%
of the Lipoptena were dead.
No winged individuals
Dermacentor albipictus.[underlined]
Very heavy infestation.
On the neck + shoulders about
5-6 per square inch of skin
surface including larvae, nymphs
+ adults. The larvae were the
most abundant stage, the nymphs
next + the adults the least abundant
very few of the adults were even
partially engorged, most of them
completely unengorged. Over
the rest of the dorsal body surface
+ sides about 1 per sq. [square] inch
