Cosmoglyphus
''Cosmoglyphus'' is a genus of mites in the family Acaridae. Description Adults of this genus can be recognised by: supracoxal Seta, setae lanceolate and with lateral barbs; tarsi of the fourth leg pair short; males with proximal sucker on the proximal half of tarsus. Deutonymphs (also known as hypopi) have the proximal ends of the Sternum (arthropod anatomy), sternum and epimerae II usually at the same transverse level near the posterior edge of the sternal shield. The genu of the fourth (sometimes third) leg pair is enlarged. The tibiae of the third and fourth leg pairs are approximately equal. The anal disk is small and the distance from it to the mite's posterior end is over 1.5 times its length. The ventrum is whole. Ecology ''Cosmoglyphus'' are found in various habitats including dung, decaying plants and nests of Ant, ants and Termite, termites. There is a case of ''Cosmoglyphus'' sp. living in a woman's ear (otoacariasis), where it was presumably feeding on Fungus, ...
