Morphological Ontogeny and Life Cycle of Laboratory-Maintained Eremobelba eharai (Acari: Oribatida: Eremobelbidae)

Simple Summary The oribatid mite, Eremobelba eharai, is distributed in northern China. Previously, information on its laboratory rearing and reproductive biology was lacking. Based on the first successful multigenerational laboratory rearing of this species, we thoroughly documented the morphological changes across all developmental stages, from larva to adult, and characterized its complete life cycle.
