The four families which constitute this sub-order comprise a large number of Mites in which the tracheae open near the articulation of the legs, and consequently in a somewhat posterior situation. The families are Oribatidae, Argasidae, Ixodidae, and Gamasidae. Fam. 1. Oribatidae.—The Oribatidae or " Beetle-mites " are free-living Acari, with tracheae of which the stigmata are con- cealed by the articulation of the legs.
