Soil Mite (Acari: Mesostigmata) Communities and Their Relationships with Some Environmental Variables in Experimental Grasslands from Bucegi Mountains in Romania

Insects, 2022
Simple Summary Grasslands are critical from ecological and pastoral points of view, being defined by valuable species of plants and animals. One of the most important biological components is soil fauna, as soil mites.

Mesostigmata diversity by manure type: a reference study and new datasets from southwestern Iran

Experimental & applied acarology, 2022
Manure-inhabiting Mesostigmata mites are important biological control agents of pest flies. However, the biodiversity of this mite community is mainly known from Europe and America, and especially from cattle manure. This study examined the diversity and

High Diversity of Mites (Acari: Oribatida, Mesostigmata) Supports the High Conservation Value of a Broadleaf Forest in Eastern Norway

Forests, 2021
Broadleaf forests are critical habitats for biodiversity and this biodiversity is in turn essential for their proper functioning. Mites (Acari) are a numerous and functionally essential component of these forests. We report the diversity of two important

Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of the predatory mite Stratiolaelaps scimitus (Acari: Laelapidae)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
In this study, we recovered the complete mitochondrial genome of Stratiolaelaps scimitus through Illumina sequencing data. The circularized mitogenome is 16,009 in length, which consists of 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and 2 ...
