Stylostome formation in trombiculid mites (Acariformes: Trombiculidae)

Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2009
Stylostomes of the trombiculid mite larvae Neotrombicula pomeranzevi (Schluger), Hirsutiella zachvatkini (Schluger), Miyatrombicula esoensis (Sasa and Ogata) and Euschoengastia rotundata (Schluger) (Acariformes: Trombiculidae), formed in the host skin during feeding of the parasites on their natural hosts (voles) were studied histologically and ...

Predation and mycophagy by endeostigmatid mites (Acariformes: Prostigmata) [PDF]

Experimental and Applied Acarology, 1988
The endeostigmatid mitesAlicorhagia fragilis andAlycus spp. are nematophages. Nematodes are cut up by the chelicerae or ingested whole, but are difficult to recognize as gut contents.Alycus roseus is a strict predator and does not consume microphytes.Alicorhagia fragilis is an omnivore. When nematodes are not available, adult females consume more fungi,

Gallogenesis induced by eryophyoid mites (Acariformes: Eriophyoidea)

Entomological Review, 2015
Eriophyoid mites are a group of phytoparasites of high economic importance due to their ability to transmit phytopathogens and cause the development of various plant malformations including galls. Chemical compounds of mite saliva injected into plant cells and the reaction of the plant cell genome play the crucial role in the gall formation process ...

Stylostome organization in feeding Leptotrombidium larvae (Acariformes: Trombiculidae)

Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2014
The stylostome of larvae of the trombiculids Leptotrombidium scutellare (Nagayo et al.), Leptotrombidium fletcheri (Womersley et Heaslip) and Leptotrombidium deliense (Walch) was studied experimentally at different time intervals after larval attachment using the histological method. The stylostome of these species has the same organization and belongs

Demodex labialis sp. nov. (Acariformes: Demodecidae) from the European Mole Talpa europaea in the Context of the Soricomorpha Demodecid Mites

The Annals of zoology
. The biodiversity of parasitic skin mites, including the Demodecidae of soricomorph mammals, is very poorly known. So far only seven species from this family have been described, associated with four host species: two each from the common shrew Sorex ...
