Review (by Malcolm Storey) | This magificent if somewhat aged tome offers an overview of the Acari with keys to families. Line drawings of representatives of the families are included. Although written from an American perspective the focus is world-wide. |
Errata, Corrigenda & Comments | The downloadable edition is very high resolution, which may make it ideal for printing but it is very slow to use online. |
Examine | Compound Microscope |
Specimen Preparation | Slide preps required. |
