Two new species of parasitic demodecid mites in the European polecat Mustela putorius and their co-infestation with Miridex putorii (Acariformes: Demodecidae)

The European Zoological Journal
The biodiversity of parasitic mites of the Demodecidae, infesting mammalian carnivorans, is poorly understood. To date, 18 host-specific species have been described, including four each from domestic dogs and cats, and only 10 from wild carnivores, known

Let me know your name: a study of chigger mites (Acariformes: Trombiculidae) associated with the edible dormouse (Glis glis) in the Carpathian–Balkan distribution gradient

Experimental & applied acarology, 2023
Trombiculid mites were collected from the edible dormouse (Glis glis) within the Carpathian–Balkan distribution gradient of host species. Representatives of five genera (Leptotrombidium, Neotrombicula, Brunehaldia, Hirsutiella, Schoutedenichia) and 10 ...

Idiosyncrasy of feather mite intensity and prevalence across passerine bird species: a comparative study

Oikos, Volume 2025, Issue 5, May 2025.
Symbionts are key elements of ecosystems, by playing important roles in shaping the biology and ecology of their hosts. However, the factors determining symbiont loads across host species are still unclear. Nowadays, we know that the intensity and prevalence of feather mites, the most diverse group of avian ectosymbionts, differ strongly between ...

Molecular phylogeny and description of Hygrobates cyrnusensis sp. nov. reveals multiple colonization of Corsica by water mites of the H. fluviatilis-complex (Acariformes, Hydrachnidia, Hygrobatidae)

Acarologia, 2023
Water mites of the Hygrobates fluviatilis-complex are common and often the most abundant water mite group in running waters in the Palaearctic. This study provides the first time-calibrated phylogeny of this complex to date.

Older Lineages of Oribatid Mites in Mountain Ranges Have Broader Geographic Ranges and Exhibit More Generalistic Traits

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2025.
We investigated the radiation and trait diversity of soil oribatid mites from two mountain ranges (the Alps and Changbai Mountain). We found that phylogenetically older oribatid mites of mountain ranges have broader trophic variation, larger geographical range sizes, and more often reproduce via parthenogenesis.

Gonads and gametogenesis in astigmatic mites (Acariformes: Astigmata)

Arthropod Structure & Development, 2014
Astigmatans are a large group of mites living in nearly every environment and exhibiting very diverse reproductive strategies. In spite of an uniform anatomical organization of their reproductive systems, gametogenesis in each sex is highly variable, leading to gamete formation showing many peculiar features and emphasizing the distinct position of ...
