Engorged Ixodes pacificus nymph, flat I. pacificus nymph, and I. pacificus larva collected 5/29 in Napa County.

Was one of the winners for the #TropMed24 #ACME_Challenge!
19/20 isn’t bad!
(Feeling pretty darn pleased honestly since I haven’t worked with many of the vectors since 2011!)
It was a pleasure meeting outgoing ACME chair Dr Adriana Troyo (finally!) as well! #ticktalk #medentoAF
