The c2-cell is commonly situated either in the polar or equatorial region of the
acinus adjacent to an a-cell. It has large secretory granules with a pale pink PAS
staining reaction. In electron micrographs the granules (up to 2 ^im) are spherical

4.5.5 Salivary glands of male ticks Light microscopy of the single type of acinus (
acinus IV) of male ticks indicated that there was only one cell type (Binnington &
Stone 1981). Electron microscopy shows that this conclusion is probably correct.

Unlike some ixodids, the type I acini do not seem to decrease in size during
feeding. This may indicate a different role for this acinus type off the host or
during feeding compared to some ixodid species. As in ixodids, their direct
attachment to ...
