I am hoping someone can identify the image below enter image description here

My wife felt a bug bite her and found this in her hair now she's worried that it was a tick. the photo is at 40X under microscope. I'm guessing it's an arthropod maybe some kind of beetle but I haven't seen anything like this before.

Improve this question
