The bumblebee mite Parasitellus fucorum (De Geer, 1778) (Acariformes: Parasitidae) : a new species for the Faroe Islands
This is the first report of the bumblebee mite Parasitellus fucorum (De Geer, 1778) from the Faroe Islands. The mite was found on two bumblebee queens of the species Bombus lucorum (Linnaeus, 1761), one of which was heavily infested, hosting 811 mites. Several mites were additionally infected by het...
