Because accurate identification of different pollen mite species is exacting and microscopic, and several host bees are in commerce and shipped regularly, it is likely that Ch. Krombeini is over-identified. Even experts express reluctance in specifying mites, such as reported in a study of Osmia pumila. [1]
Trombiculid mites are found throughout the world. In Europe and North America, they tend to be more prevalent in the hot and humid regions. In northern Europe, including the British Isles where they are called harvest mites, the species Neotrombicula autumnalis are found during the summer and autumn (in French, harvest mites are called aoûtat because they are common in August [19]).

Chiggers and scabies are the mites that bite. Yep, both of these little biters are actually mites, which makes them arachnids, not insects. That means they are more closely related to ticks than ...
Erythraeidae is a family of mites belonging to the Trombidiformes. [2] Larval forms of these mites are parasitic on various other arthropods, for example harvestmen, but the adults are free-living predators. These oval mites are rather large, usually reddish coloured and densely hairy.
Trombidiidae, also known as red velvet mites, true velvet mites, [2] or rain bugs, are small arachnids (eight-legged arthropods) found in plant litter and are known for their bright red color. While adults are typically no more than 4 mm (0.16 in) in length, some species can grow larger and the largest, including the African Dinothrombium ...
Neotrombicula autumnalis, known as the harvest mite or autumn chigger, is a species of mite of the family Trombiculidae. Their larvae live parasitically; they infect all domestic mammals , humans, and some ground-nesting birds .
The avian mite Dermanyssus gallinae can also infest various parts of the body, including the ear canal and scalp. Diagnosis is challenging due to the mites' size, requiring microscopic identification by a medical entomologist, and the clinical symptoms often mimic other conditions, such as scabies or allergic reactions. The atypical or delayed ...
