The Co-Occurrence of Demodecidae and Psorergatidae (Acariformes: Prostigmata) in the Yellow-Necked Field Mouse Apodemus flavicollis (Rodentia: Muridae) with a Description of Two New Species and a New Host Record

open access: goldDiversity
Mites from the Demodecidae and Psorergatidae can optimally use mammalian hosts by inhabiting a number of different microhabitats in their skin. Hence, in individual hosts, several species of parasites from these groups have been described in different ...

The labidostommatid palpus: a morphological enigma (Acariformes: Prostigmata)

open access: diamondAcarologia, 2015
Hypotheses are reviewed concerning which segments of the primitively five-segmented palpus are coalesced to form the simple, linear, four-segmented form characteristic of labidostommatid mites. Among alternatives, those of either a femurogenu or a tibiotarsus are not based on convincing evidence.

Repeated convergent evolution of parthenogenesis in Acariformes (Acari) [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
AbstractThe existence of old species‐rich parthenogenetic taxa is a conundrum in evolutionary biology. Such taxa point to ancient parthenogenetic radiations resulting in morphologically distinct species. Ancient parthenogenetic taxa have been proposed to exist in bdelloid rotifers, darwinulid ostracods, and in several taxa of acariform mites ...
