Evolutionary processes in oribatid mites at different scales in time as indicated by molecular markers

Chelicerata is one of the oldest arthropod phylum, already represented by diverse forms in the Cambrian fossil record, and mites (Acari) are the most diverse representative of the ancient lineage of Chelicerata. Oribatid mites (Acari, Oribatida) are species rich ubiquitous soil arthropods playing an...
