PHORESY AS MIGRATION ‐ SOME FUNCTIONAL ASPECTS OF PHORESY IN MITES

open access: yesBiological Reviews, 1982
SummaryI. The dispersive role of mite phoresy, which has merely been presumed, is presented in the light of modern theories of migration with the aim of its characterization behaviourally, ecologically and physiologically.II. Data on phoresy accords well with modern, behavioural definitions of migration, as a phase of the depression of growth‐promoting

Importance of phoresy in the transmission of Acarina.

open access: yesParassitologia, 2007
Dispersal capacity plays a central role in the radiation of animals, facilitating the exploitation of habitats variously distributed in space or in time or both. Many living species are unable to leave a host, crawl around, and find a new host, so they must rely on external factors to be transmitted.

The subject was reviewed by Ferriere (30), although a large part of his discussion related to species other than those of entomophagous habit.
