چکیده
Receptors on palps and fore tarsi of Pneumonyssus simicola Banks, 1901, Raillietia auris and Raillietia sp. (Trouessart, 1902) (Mesostigmata: Halarachnidae), dwelling in lungs and ears of mammals, and of Sternostomoides turdi (Zumpt et Till, 1905) and Tinaminyssus sp. (Mesostigmata: Rhinonyssidae), dwelling in nasal cavities of birds, were examined in a scanning electron microscope. Morphological changes of sense organs, associated with adaptation to parasitizing in body cavities, are discussed.

The goal of this study was to evaluate the morphometric variation of laelapine populations (Acari, Mesostigmata) associated with neotropical oryzomyine rodents at different geographic localities in Brazil. Three nominal mite species were selected for study, all infesting the pelage of small mammals at different localities in Rio de Janeiro, Espírito Santo, Bahia, and the Federal District, Brazi...
