| Abstract: | The population structure of Bovicola caprae on goats has been recorded by examining 57 goat skins (45 by brushing cum searching and 12 by disolving method). Population, sex ratio, adult nymph ratio has been recorded at different levels of infestation. The female dominated over the male population and M:F ratio has been found to be 1:2 by brushing cum searching and 1-1.7 by disolving method. Likewise, A:N was found to be 1:1.2 by brushing cum searching and 1-1.7 by disolving method. The number of males and females follow similar pattern throughout population and were found to exhibit a high degree of correlation. |
