This 2008 photograph depicted a male, Amblyomma triste from a dorsal view, as it was climbing a blade of grass.With its eight jointed legs, like its tick bretheren, this animal is a member of the phylum Arthropoda, and the like scorpions and spiders, the class Arachnida. Though a 2004 study in Uruguay showed A. triste to be a carrier of Rickettsia parkeri, and it is known that these arthropods do feed upon human hosts, it was not definitively determined that human rickettsioses were the result of this ticks bite (see the link below).Created: 2008
