+##### Step for tick labels
+
+You can set a step for tick labels with `ticklabelstep`. In this example, we hide labels between every `2` ticks on the y axes. Similarly, this can be used with `fig.update_xaxes` for x axes: `fig.update_xaxes(ticklabelstep=2)`.
+
+```python
+import plotly.express as px
+df = px.data.iris()
+
+fig = px.scatter(df, x="sepal_width", y="sepal_length", facet_col="species")
+fig.update_yaxes(ticklabelstep=2)
+
+fig.show()
+```
+
 ##### Toggling axis labels
 
 The axis tick mark labels can be disabled by setting the `showticklabels` axis property to `False`.
