A series of experiments was designed and carried out to assess the variation of feeding performance of the adult female ticks of Haemaphysalis longicornis in the primary and repeated feeding trials on the same experimental host rabbit under laboratory conditions. It was concluded that an acquired immunity was indeed developed, that the feeding performance was reduced by repeated feeding of the ticks on the same host, and that it was not true economy to use a rabbit more than twice for the colonization of the tick H. longicornis.
