So I've reached a point in my life where I could make this as my thank you slide at the end of a talk and it makes total sense to everyone in the room.
The talk covered my soil mite extraction method I'm working on.

🤯 One of its most fascinating behaviors:
Adult males carry female nymphs with their hind legs and mate with them immediately after they emerge as adults.
Tiny mite, remarkable strategy.

Meanwhile, on Earth:
Microscopic mites on a beetle's back prepare for spring. This March, entire ecosystems move on the scale of an inch.

Äntligen åtkomst till större förstoringar och först i tur var käkarna från ett än så länge obestämt kvalster i familjen Oplitidae.

Sometimes it doesn't pay for me to find the answers to the questions that I think of before going to bed! If you didn't know this, now you do. SWEET DREAMS! P.s. I don't like being molested in the middle of the night! 🤨

I found a moth that had mites clustered around it's mouthparts. I don't know what kind of mites these were nor the species of the moth.

Friday I gave a 25 minute intro-to-mites guest lecture to the bachelor students. A miracle happened where I actually ended a couple minutes ahead of schedule! Anyway, it was very well received, and Mr. Oedipus Tex the lone star tick was particularly popular.

🧬 New study on Brevipalpus flat mites reveals cryptic diversity and updated species relationships using morphology + mitochondrial and nuclear markers.
Key species: B. yothersi, B. californicus, B. papayensis, B. obovatus, B. mallorquensis, and B. oleae.

More end-of-summer #galls. Two #mites infect this alder: Acalitus brevitarsus, which causes leaf to blister (topside) and grow clusters of glassy 'hairs' (underside), and Eriophyes inangulis, which does same but in nooks at main vein joints. Larvae develop in these growths. Bungay, Suffolk, England.
#Mites are small arachnids (eight-legged arthropods) of two large orders, the Acariformes and the Parasitiformes, which were historically grouped together in the subclass Acari. However
