The mitochondrial genome of Parasitus fimetorum was sequenced to study the Parasitidae tRNA gene secondary structure in Parasitiformes. tRNAscan-SE and ARWEN identified inferred structures 22 genes fimetorum, which were compared genomes. results showed that most had a typical cloverleaf structure; base substitutions or mismatches occurred during folding process, stem region less variation than ...

The present study proposes the restructuring of Ologamasiphis genus (family Parasitidae) comprising two subgenera s. and Holzmannia Juvara-Balş, 2002, to have respective elevated level, as well brand-new Juvaria subgenus created within genus. proposed is based on newly described species belonging n. subgen., wit (Juvaria) pilosa sp. silvestris Furthermore, new are described: setosus zelkovae Pe...

Three new species of Parasitidae are described from Austria, namely Leptogamasus (Leptogamasus) chelatus n. sp., (L.) coronarius sp. and trispinus

The four new species belonging to Parasitidae family, Leptogamasus (Leptogamasus) bicornis n. sp., (L.) digiticornis sextus sp. and trentinis originating from the surroundings of Lake Garda (Lago di Garda), northern Italy, are described.

The species composition of mesostigmatid mites in the soil and leaf litter was studied on the Szczeliniec Wielki plateau, which is spatially isolated from similar rocky habitats. A total of 1080 soil samples were taken from June 2004 to September 2005. The samples, including the organic horizon from the herb layer and litter from rock cracks, were collected using steel cylinders (area 40 cm2, d...
