The effect of starvation on the metabolic rate and microanatomy of Galumna elimata (Acari: Oribatida)
The physiological parameters mortality, mass, oxygen consumption and amylase activity, and microanatomical features of the digestive tract, mesenchym and reproductive organs were used to characterise starvation in Galumna elimata. The mites were reared in sterilised plastic vials containing moistene...
