Uropodidae
Uropodidae is a family of mites in the order Mesostigmata.

They can be distinguished from other uropodoids by their chelicerae lacking a large, sclerotized node and their genital opening being in an intercoxal position. Ecology Several species in the family commonly infest Vermicompost, worm bins and consume food intended for the worms. An undescribed species of Uropodidae sucks out the hemolymph of pupae of ''Pheidole megacephala'' ants, resulting in the death of pupae. It preferentially attacks pupae of soldier and male ants. Uropodidae are Phoresis, phoretic on larger arthropods, meaning that they attach to larger arthropods to be transported to new places. This attachment is achieved using a pedicel of translucent material extruded from the mite's anus. One known host for uropodid mites is the red palm weevil ( ...
