Abstract
Campana-Rouget (1959) reviewed the teratology of ticks and included cases of gynandromorphism. She claimed the first discovery of a tick gynandromorph was reported in 1919. Since then, relatively few papers on tick gynandromorphs have been published. Most of the gynandromorphs that have been studied occurred naturally, but according to Campana-Rouget, Pervomaisky obtained several specimens among the progeny of inter-specific, crosses. Observations have been recorded only rarely on feeding, sexual behavior, fecundity, and development of the F1 progeny. Because of this lack, it seems worthwhile to record our probable experimental production of gynandromorphs, and our rearing data on the gynandromorphs and their progeny.
