The diapause in ticks is controlled by photoperiod, but their age also has an effect on the regulation of the diapause (Belozerov, 1982). In the previous study, Fujimoto (2000) reported that the behavioral diapause of Ixodes nipponensis nymphs were induced by exposure to a short-day photoperiod (10L-14D) after molting. However, the nymphs used in this study (Fujimoto, 2000) were exposed to a short-day photoperiod directly after molting. According to Belozerov (1982), an increase in age leads to a weakening of the photoperiodic induction and the maintenance of tick diapause. This may suggest that the photoperiodic sensitivity of I. nipponensis nymphs weakens with a prolonged time after molting, and consequently, the proportional occurrence of behavioral diapause decreases. The objective of this study is to clarify whether or not the prolonged time after molting affects the photoperiodic sensitivity of I. nipponensis nymphs.
