The absence of the 20 000 mw band from 1. , 2- , and 3 - day fed female salivary
gland preparations is probably a reflection of the low relative abundance of this
protein species to total protein ( Table 13.1 ) . The estimated relative abundance

We can also determine the relative importance of the different sensory modalities
for each of them ( Table 16.2 ) . We observe that the ixodids differ greatly from the
argasids in this respect . The latter have relatively few setaassociated ...

Body water content , in turn , is governed by temperature and relative humidity .
Thus , when temperature is low and relative humidity high , for example in April
and May , populations of adult A. americanum ascend vegetation and await a
host .
