Abundance and Infestation of Mites on Bower's White-Toothed Rat (<i>Berylmys bowersi</i>) in Southwest China. [PDF]

Vet Sci
Chiggers (chigger mites) and gamasid mites are two groups of ectoparasites on rodents, and they can be the vectors or potential vectors of scrub typhus and hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS), while Bower’s white-toothed rat (Berylmys ...

Predicting the population dynamics of the house dust mite 'Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus' (Acari: pyroglyphidae) in response to a constant hygrothermal environment using a model of the mite life cycle [PDF]

, 2007
A generalised model of the life cycle of a house dust mite, which can be tailored to any particular species of domestic mite, is presented. The model takes into account the effects of hygrothermal conditions on each life cycle phase.

A simple model for predicting the effect of hygrothermal conditions on populations of house dust mite 'Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus' (Acari: Pyroglyphidae) [PDF]

, 2006
A simple mite population index (MPI) model is presented which predicts the effect on house dust mite populations of any combination of temperature and relative humidity (RH).

Drought decreases incorporation of recent plant photosynthate into soil food webs regardless of their trophic complexity

Global Change Biology, Volume 25, Issue 10, Page 3549-3561, October 2019., 2019
How soil food web complexity modulates the response to drought of soil functions related to C cycling and the capture and transfer below‐ground of recent photosynthate C by plants? We provide an exciting 13C pulse‐labelling experiment to answer that question.

Redescription of Female Laelaps nuttalli Hirst, 1915 (Acari: Dermanyssoidea: Laelapidae) with Emphasis on Its Gnathosoma, Sense Organs and Pulvilli

International Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
The present scanning electron microscopic (SEM) study includes the redescription of female Laelaps nuttalli with emphasis on its gnathosoma and pulvilli which were rarely described in superfamily Dermanyssoidea. Chaetotaxy of dorsal shield revealed 40 pairs of setae, 22 on prosoma and 18 on opisthosoma.

Specialized Predation on Oribatid Mites by Two Species of the Ant Genus Myrmecina (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 101, Issue 3-4, Page 159-173, 1994., 1994
Specialized predation on oribatid mites was confirmed in two Japanese species of the myrmicine genus Myrmecina, the first instance in the Formicidae. Using the mouthparts and legs, a worker skillfully tears a hole in the oribatid body and gives the partly dismembered prey to a larva.

The use of plant, bacterial and fungal resources in soil food webs of ecto‐ and arbuscular mycorrhiza‐dominated deciduous forests

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 9, Page 2398-2412, September 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Soil food webs, driven by complex interactions among plants, microbes and invertebrates, are crucial for carbon and nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems. Over the last decade, it has become evident that forests dominated by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) or ...
