    A highly detailed macro photograph of a tick, likely a Dermacentor species (possibly Dermacentor variabilis, the American dog tick), shown in dorsal view against a pure black background. The image was produced by the U.S. Army Public Health Command (USAPHC) and credited to photographer Graham Snodgrass. A distinctive yellowish-gold spot or marking is visible on the scutum (dorsal shield), which is characteristic of ornate hard ticks.
