在蜱虫中，气孔的形态，特别是迷路的形态，在物种之间有所不同。先前在蓖麻硬蜱 (L.) 中描述的“相互干扰”效应导致的水蒸气蒸腾减少在许多物种中并不显着。相反，迷宫内非常有限的空气运动以及大量小气孔产生的高扩散阻力阻碍了蒸腾作用。这些适应在干旱环境中可能特别有用。
In ixodid ticks the morphology of the spiracle, and in particular that of the labyrinth, differs between species. A reduction in transpiration of water vapour by the ‘mutual interference’ effect previously described in Ixodes ricinus (L.) is not significant in many species. Instead, transpiration is retarded by very restricted air movement within the labyrinth and by a high resistance to diffusion generated by numerous small aeropyles. These adaptations may be particularly useful in arid environments.
