Abstract

The results are given of a detailed study of the histological and ultra-structural organization of the alveolar salivary glands in free-living phases of the life cycle in trombiculid mites. A study was made of unfed larvae of Hirsutiella zachvatkini and Euschoengastia rotundata; of larvae of H. zachvatkini and Neotrombicula pomeranzevi feeding on their natural hosts; and unfed deutonymphs of H. zachvatkini together with individuals which had fed many times, and adults of the same species obtained from culture.
