Contribution to the knowledge of the Neotropical Uropodina (Acari: Mesostigmata)
Zootaxa, 2023Two new species of Uropodina are described from Peru—Stammeroplitis panguanaensis sp. nov. and Rotundabaloghia (Circobaloghia) koepckeorum sp. nov.. The genus Stammeroplitis is diagnosed and a key to its Neotropical species is presented. Twenty species of Oplitis are moved to Stammeroplitis. The new family Clausiadinychidae fam. nov. is established for

Catalogue of the family Ologamasidae Ryke (Acari: Mesostigmata)
Zootaxa, 2016Mites of the family Ologamasidae are very conspicuous and abundant in soil and litter, especially in the Southern Hemisphere. Little is known of their biology and behaviour, but they appear to be generalist predators. The family is placed in the Rhodacaroidea, but its status and composition have been very unstable.

Contribution to the Uropodina mites of Peru (Acari: Mesostigmata)
Zootaxa, 2017Soil dwelling Uropodina mites were collected from a primary lowland rainforest in Amazonian Peru. The species found belong to three different families. A new diagnosis and the type genus of Tetrasejaspidae fam. nov. are given, and the family is recorded from Peru for the first time on the basis of Tetrasejaspis sellnicki Hirschmann, 1973.

Revision of the Australian Ascidae (Acarina : Mesostigmata)
Invertebrate Systematics, 1998Ascid mites are an important component of the predatory meiofauna in soil, onvegetation, and in association with other animals, yet the Australian fauna isalmost unknown. At least 15 genera of ascid mites occur in Australia, of which14 genera and 26 species are treated in this paper. Four of these genera(Gamasellodes, Hoploseius,Platyseius,Xenoseius)

Predatory mites (Gamasina, Mesostigmata)
Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment, 1999Abstract Mesostigmata or Gamasida are known from a wide range of habitats. Most of them are free living predators in soil and litter, on the soil surface or on plants. Some are able to disperse rapidly by phoresy. In agroecosystems, edaphic Mesostigmata are important predators of Nematoda, Collembola and insect larvae, and those living on plants may ...

Checklist of Indian mites in the family Laelapidae (Acari: Mesostigmata)
Zootaxa, 2023Laelapidae Canestrini, 1891 is one of the most diverse mite families in the order Mesostigmata, but the Indian fauna of this family is very poorly known. This paper is a checklist of the known species of Laelapidae recorded from India, with a summary of the available information on the distribution and biology of each species.

Evolution of Haplodiploidy in Dermanyssine Mites (Acari: Mesostigmata)
Evolution, 1999Haplodiploidy, a widespread phenomenon in which males are haploid and females are diploid, can be caused by a number of different underlying genetic systems. In the most common of these, arrhenotoky, males arise from unfertilized eggs, whereas females arise from fertilized eggs.

Revision of the Fedrizziidae (Acari: Mesostigmata: Fedrizzioidea)
Zootaxa, 2007The Fedrizziidae are the most diverse group of mites associated with passalid beetles in Australia. Herein, I re-diagnose the family, genera and species, and describe ten new species from Australia, Indonesia and Thailand: Fedrizzia abradoalves sp. nov., F. gilloglyi sp. nov., F. parvipilus sp. nov., Neofedrizzia bunyas sp. nov., N. gordoni sp. nov., N.
