First Description of Larval Hirstiosoma novaehollandiae Womersley, 1936 (Prostigmata, Smarididae) With Redescription of Postlarval Instars and Phylogenetic Placement

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
Hirstiosoma novaehollandiae Womersley, 1936 is redescribed based on three males, deutonymph, and larva, which is described for the first time. These specimens were collected from leaf litter near Thames municipality, Waikato Region, New Zealand. Conspecificity between larval and postlarval stages was confirmed by means of cytochrome oxidase I barcoding.

Diversity of Mites Associated With Stingless Bees (Hymenoptera: Meliponini) in Forest Fragments in Brazil: Empirical Validation of an Efficient and Low‐Cost Sampling Method

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite the importance of understanding mite–bee interactions, standardized and noninvasive methods for sampling mite communities in stingless bee hives remain limited. This study aimed to evaluate a novel, low‐cost sampling technique using a custom‐built suction device, the Portable Mite Aspirator (PMA), for collecting mites from hives of ...

Spider Mites: Genetic Models to Inform Herbivore and Chelicerate Biology

open access: yesBioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 5, May 2026.
Chelicerates include spiders, scorpions and ticks, and also spider mites that damage crops. Many of the features that make spider mites crop pests have facilitated their adoption as genetically tractable chelicerates. The expanding genetic toolkit developed using spider mites has potential to inform genetic studies in other chelicerates as well ...
