Morphological evidence for the evolutionary origin of Astigmata (Acari: Acariformes)information of phylogenetic value has greatly increased and the paradigms within which we interpret it have changed. Herein I refine the general hypothesis that Astigmata originated within oribatid mites, and suggest Malaconothridae as a possible sister-group. Among the 14 apomorphies used to suppor

Evolution of phytophagy in trombidiform mitesy in the other acariform suborder, Sarcoptiformes, is limited to just a few species, amidst otherwise saprophagous or fungivorous taxa, that attack the living tissues of higher plants. The phylogenetic relationships of lineages that contain taxa of plant-feeding mites are reviewed briefly, to facili

Sperm competition in the Acari and physiology of the female reproductive tract are key factors establishing the sperm competition pattern. First-male sperm priority was found in Gamasida and Actinedida, whereas in Acaridida the last males to mate had the highest reproductive success. However, this general pattern may be modified

Distribution of asymmetrical and symmetrical sperm storage in the Eriophyoidea and its phylogenetic ae. Two of the Phytoptidae, both from dicot hosts, represent the first examined species of Phytoptinae and Sierraphytoptinae. All three phytoptids stored sperm symmetrically, the same as other phytoptids from gymnosperm and monocot hosts (a Nalepellinae and a Novophytoptinae, respectively) reported

Genetic differentiation in , (Acari: Tetranychidae) from greenhouses in France and between greenhouses. Genetic structure was investigated in relation to mite density, geographic distribution of greenhouses and the colonized host plant. We found that mite density and distribution of infested plants influence gene flow within greenhouses. Between greenhouses isolation by dista
