This key allows separation of the plant-parasitic mite families of most interest to quarantine.
The goals of these keys are (1) to allow a USDA quarantine officer to quickly sort a plant-parasitic mite intercept into its proper family for further identification and (2) to teach acarine morphology and taxonomy through use of the key. Additionally, a separate Glossary with about 800 terms may be accessed from the Front Page.
