%X The identification of effective pesticides to combat parasites as the tick Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus requires hatchability studies in the presence of acaricides, part of the process is the egg counting. Due to the small size and the large number of eggs placed, the counting task is laborious and demand long periods. We propose a method of automatic counting of eggs using images captured with stereoscopic microscope. The proposed method combines border detection techniques and morphological operations to identify eggs regions. Features extractors and machine learn techniques are used to identify eggs overlap regions. Preliminary results indicate an accuracy of 93% in predicting the number of eggs in a much shorter time fraction compared to the traditional manual counting technique.
