Life history, non-specificity and revision of the genus Chorioptes, a parasitic mite of herbivores.

Mange, scabies or acariasis is a dermatitis associated with various species of mites on domestic herbivores and other animals. One species on cattle is Chorioptes bovis (Héring, 1845) Gervais and Van Beneden, 1859. This mite has been incriminated as the cause of most clinical cases of mange reported...
