Ontogenetic Stages Of Oulenziella Bakeri (Hughes) (Acari: Winterschmidtiidae)

The ontogenetic stages of mite family Winterschmidtiidae are rarely studied. Here we provide detailed descriptions and illustrations of all developmental stages of Oulenziella bakeri (Hughes). A comparison of the idiosomal and leg chactotaxy of all stages are presented. New data on hosts and distribution of O. bakeri are provided.
