In the paper Krüger & Wirth (2011) we elucidate various biologically interesting phenomena based on the #mite #Sarraceniopus #nipponensis (#Histiostomatidae) that is bound to life within the pitchers of carnivorus #Sarracenia plants (#Ericales).
we have also dealt intensively with the #lifecycle and details of the #prematingbehavior. The attached #SEM photo shows two #males apparently #competing for the #mateguarding privilege with a #female #tritonymph.
