THE EVOLUTION OF THERMIPHILOUS WATER MITES [PDF]
Evolution, 1960 The animals found in hot springs are commonly tolerant forms from adjacent waters and the few known obligate thermophiles are, as a rule, locally restricted species. Water mites of the genus Thermacarus are a prominent exception. Both described species are obligate thermophiles (requiring temperatures always over 320 C), yet they are widely distributed;
