Molecular Phylogenetic Reassessment of the Superfamily Eriophyoidea (Arachnida: Acari) Based on COI and 18S rRNA

Entomological Research, Volume 56, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Gall mites (superfamily Eriophyoidea) are highly specialized phytophagous arthropods with extreme host plant specificity and marked morphological diversity. Despite extensive taxonomic and molecular research, phylogenetic relationships within the superfamily remain unresolved, largely due to persistent polyphyly among several families.

Some mesostigmatid mites from Iran with their world distribution

Journal of Crop Protection, 2013
Edaphic Mesostigmata are important, because these feed on arthropods and other invertebrates which may affect on natural equilibrium position of oter living micro-organisms. In order to study the fauna of mesostigmatid mites, samples of soil, litter were

The Feeding Ecology of Invasive Pink Salmon Juveniles in Northern Norwegian Rivers and Their Role as Prey to Native Salmonids

Ecology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 35, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Increasing numbers of invasive Pacific pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) are spawning in northern Norwegian rivers, leading to large numbers of juveniles migrating to coastal waters. This raises concerns about food competition with native salmonids in rivers, although details about the timing and intensity of pink salmon feeding and the ...

Quill Mites of the Family Syringophilidae (Acariformes: Cheyletoidea) Parasitising Birds of the Subfamily Euphoninae (Passeriformes: Fringillidae)

Animals
Quill mites of the family Syringophilidae (Acariformes: Prostigmata) are highly specialised avian ectoparasites that inhabit feather quills. Despite their widespread occurrence, their diversity, distribution, and host associations remain poorly ...

Expansion of invasive carabids across elevation and habitats on sub‐Antarctic South Georgia

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 4, Page 812-827, July 2026.
Two introduced carabid species have continued to expand their ranges on the sub‐Antarctic island of South Georgia over the past 10–15 years. The species have colonised inland valleys and are present across habitats but are more abundant in those with high vegetation cover. N‐mixture models revealed the optimal sampling method, intensity and habitat for

Little devils of Neotropical forests: A first molecular phylogeny of stygnid harvestmen with UCE‐museomics and a gigamatrix approach (Arachnida, Opiliones, Stygnidae)

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, July‐September 2026.
First family‐wide phylogenomic framework of Stygnidae using UCE‐museomics and a gigamatrix approach establishes a novel three‐subfamily classification, erecting the new subfamily Auraninae subfam. nov. Signatures of severe incomplete lineage sorting and short deep internodes suggest a rapid early‐burst Neotropical radiation, driving phylogenetic ...

Biodiversity of oribatid mites in two different microhabitats of Khuzestan province (Southwestern Iran)

Journal of Crop Protection, 2014
Two different microhabitats (cropped fields versus established date-palm farms) in two different cities in Khuzestan Province, Southwestern Iran, were sampled monthly during 2011-2012 in order to assess the role of anthropic uses of soil on the ...

New records of species of the genera Corynoppia, Ramusella and Rhinoppia (Oribatida: Oppiidae) from Iran, with a key for Iranian oppiid mite species

Journal of Crop Protection, 2015
Five oppiid mite species (Oribatida: Oppiidae) belonging to three genera (Corynoppia, Ramusella and Rhinoppia) are reported as new records for the mite fauna of Iran. Some of their morphological features and distributions in the world are presented.
