Halarachnidae is a small family of mites in the order Mesostigmata. Species Halarachnidae contains seven genera, with ten recognized species: * Genus ''Halarachne'' Allman, 1847 ** ''Halarachne halichoeri'' Allman, 1847 ** ''Halarachne laysanae'' Furman & Dailey, 1980 * Genus ''Orthohalarachne'' Newell, 1947 ** ''Orthohalarachne attenuata'' (Banks, 1910) * Genus ''Pneumonyssoides'' Fain, 1955 ** ''Pneumonyssoides caninum'' (Chandler & Ruhe, 1940) * Genus ''Pneumonyssus'' Banks, 1901 ** ''Pneumonyssus capricorni'' Domrow, 1974 ** ''Pneumonyssus simicola'' Banks, 1901 * Genus ''Rhinophaga'' Fain, 1955 ** ''Rhinophaga cercopitheci'' Fain, 1955 * Genus ''Sciurinyssus'' ** ''Sciurinyssus coreaensis'' * Genus ''Zumptiella'' Fain, 1962 ** ''Zumptiella furmani'' Fain, 1962 ** ''Zumptiella tamias'' Fain, Lukoschus & Whitaker, 1983 References Mesostigmata Acari families {{Mesostigmata-stub ...

Orthohalarachne
''Orthohalarachne attenuata'' (family: Halarachnidae) is a species of mite normally found in the nasal passages of fur seals, sea lions, and walruses. In seals, the mites can be both prevalent (almost every single seal has them) and abundant (more than 1000 mites per seal). Although clinical observations and gross examination indicate that O. attenuata parasitization alone is not serious, some erosion and inflammation of the nasal turbinates and nasopharynx in seals has been observed in histological sections. If concomitant parasitization with ''O. attenuata'' and ''O. diminuta'' occurs, alveolar emphysema and more serious ailments can threaten the life of the mammal. Morphology Mature mites are shown to be elongated in the posterior part of body to form a club-shape with the rounded posterior extremity. Ten to twelve transverse rows of 8 to 12 sharp denticules and a few rows of minute spines are present on the ventral surface of the capitulum and the posterior surface of coxa II ...

Pneumonyssoides
''Pneumonyssoides'' is a monotypic genus of mites belonging to the family Halarachnidae. The only species is ''Pneumonyssoides caninum''. It is one of the most commonly studied species of Halarachnidae found in dogs. They are oval shaped. Adults in this species can measure from 1.5 to 0.6 mm in length. The species is found in North America North America is a continent in the Northern Hemisphere, Northern and Western Hemisphere, Western hemispheres. North America is bordered to the north by the Arctic Ocean, to the east by the Atlantic Ocean, to the southeast by South Ameri .... They have a world wide distribution.

Mesostigmata
Mesostigmata is an order of mites belonging to the Parasitiformes. They are by far the largest group of Parasitiformes, with over 8,000 species in 130 families. Mesostigmata includes parasitic as well as free-living and predatory forms. They can be recognized by the single pair of spiracles positioned laterally on the body. The family with the most described species is Phytoseiidae. Other families of note are Diplogyniidae, Macrochelidae, Pachylaelapidae, Uropodidae and Veigaiidae. Amongst the best known species are ''Varroa destructor'', an economically important parasite of honey bees, as well as the red mite (''Dermanyssus gallinae''), a parasite of poultry, most commonly chickens. Description Mesostigmata are mites ranging from 0.12–4 mm long (0.2–4 mm according to another source). They have a pair of stigmatal openings above legs III-IV usually associated with a peritrematal groove. The gnathosoma has a sclerotised ring around the bases of the chelic ...

Mite
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, most recent genetic analyses do not recover the two as each other's closest relative within Arachnida, rendering the group invalid as a clade. Most mites are tiny, less than in length, and have a simple, unsegmented body plan. The small size of most species makes them easily overlooked; some species live in water, many live in soil as decomposers, others live on plants, sometimes creating galls, while others are Predation, predators or Parasitism, parasites. This last type includes the commercially destructive ''Varroa'' parasite of honey bees, as well as scabies mites of humans. Most species are harmless to humans, but a few are associated with allergies or may transmit diseases. The scientific discipline devoted to the study of mites is called acarology.
